Diary of the American Revolution
The history of any great event is a worthwhile subject for
study and the American Revolution was one of the greatest events of all of human
existence. One would be hard pressed to find better examples of the arrogance of
statism and the principled resoluteness of liberty. These pages present the
day-to-day events of the Revolution in a unique manner: in the words of those
who experienced them. Eyewitnesses on every side of the conflict related
their experiences through local newspapers and in their own diaries and letters.
Frank Moore collected hundreds of those reports from over forty Whig and Tory
newspapers, five collections of letters, and five diaries into the two volumes
of _Diary of the American Revolution_ in 1858. Since then they have been listed
in the bibliography of almost every important work on that period. No study of
the Revolution could possibly be complete without these volumes.
From many pages of humor at the expense of General Burgoyne
to the infuriating murder of Jenny McCrea you will be informed, angered, and
greatly entertained. Even if you are no historian, these volumes will be of
inestimable value to your understanding of politics, human nature, and the
current state of affairs in America.
Volume I covers January 1775 through December 1777--from the
initial civil unrest in Boston to the defeat of General Burgoyne. Volume
II covers January 1778 through December 1781--from the alliance with the French
to the surrender of Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown.

Commentary on Marriage in the Bible, Volume 1: The Torah
Marriage in the
Torah
A Commentary on Marriage in the Bible is a
multi-volume work analyzing the treatment of marriage and family
in the Bible. It begins with Genesis 1:1 and progresses to
Revelation 22:21, picking out nearly every pertinent verse along
the way. It is the result of a layman�s research project that
has spanned more than ten years so far, including countless
hours of study and prayer. Although the author has attempted to
set aside bias�whether religious, cultural, or merely
personal�in order to convey accurately what the prophets of God
actually recorded and what their words mean for us today, his
Messianic Jewish theology and devout evangelical Christian
upbringing has infused this work with a unique perspective. The
contents are controversial, and every single reader is certain
to find something with which to disagree vehemently. Conversely,
readers of every theological persuasion, Jewish, Christian, or
other, are also certain to find much of value as they read with
an open mind and heart.
Volume I comments on the Torah, the first five books of the
Bible, and provides an essential foundation to the information
in later volumes.
