Author Charles Coffin's Philosophy of History:

I discovered that there was no volume in existence that would give the young people of our country an idea of the struggles of men in England and Europe against the tyranny of emperors, kings, popes, archbishops, bishops, and inquisitors - to supply that need, I wrote Story of Liberty, Sweet Land of Liberty, and Boy’s of ’76 - together they make a series, not of general history, but an outline history of the progress of ideas.              - Charles C. Coffin,  Author, 1881

Review:

       Congratulations on completing a really big – and important – project! The subject matter of The Sweet Land of Liberty Study Guide is fascinating, and I not only learned a lot, but really found my heart racing with patriotism and Christian “pride” for our heritage. I would love to actually participate in a Bible study based on this workbook and the original book. That’s how great I think it is!                              - Tammy Gross - Gross Proofing.com
