The Sweet Land of Liberty by Charles C. Coffin written in 1881

Format: paperback, 453 pages

Yes! Our national history has been rewritten to erase the Christian Foundations. Now you can learn our true history, before the Progressive rewrites.

A sequel to The Story of Liberty. Originally titled Old Times In The Colonies,  is a fascinating look at American history beginning with the explorers: Columbus, the Cabots, Vasco da Gama, Amerigo Vespucci, Ponce de Leon, Hernando Cortez, Jacque Cartier, and others.

• Read the story of the Providential Hand of God in founding the American Colonies.

• Follow the Pilgrims as they are driven from England and crossed the Atlantic in their search for freedom to worship God.

• Watch as they begin the Christian idea of self-government and give the world the ideal of a written constitution based on Christian Principles that have given eagle wings to the human spirit!

• See how Tyranny and Wrong have fought against Liberty and Justice and how Tyranny and Wrong have gone done before it.

Adults and children will get a realistic look at colonial life in this rich narrative.

• Stories of the Pilgrims, Puritans, Quakers,
• Miles Standish, William Penn, George Washington and other important figures are factual and dramatic.
• From the birth of Virginia Dare to the defeat of General Braddock, the reader will learn how the colonists struggled to survive and live free of tyranny.

Embraced by the Christian home school community, Sweet Land of Liberty comes beautifully illustrated with more than 200 antique engravings.

Coffin's fondness for detail keeps the history from growing stale. He stitches the elements of early American life into a dramatic quilt.
You will get a deeper understanding of history than that which the mere memorization of dates, people and places provides. You will see why Old World customs, habits and laws were gradually changed.

Our founders believed that in history’s record of the struggle of good and evil, that good would win out! They believed that the highest development in that struggle for good was Christianity. They proclaimed that the highest pinnacle toward which all history was moving was the day when the kingdoms of this world would become the kingdoms of our God and of His Christ.

-Greg Harris, author of  The Christian Home School and director of Noble Institute writes:

"Sweet Land Of Liberty will walk you through the founding of each of the thirteen colonies and open your eyes to the marvelous Providence of God in the founding of our great nation." 

-from Nancy Drazga, Great Christian Books Editor:

“This no 'textbook' history book, written by a committee of people committed to cramming the most number of facts possible into the least amount of space. There are a great many facts told, but they are woven into a compelling narrative by the author so that the student gets them intermingled with a story he will find hard to put down."
