Book Description
For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Martyr President: A Discourse Delivered in the First Presbyterian Church, Penn Yan, Sabbath Morning, April 16th, 1865, on the Death of Abraham Lincoln Calamities are frequent! Such dispensations, startling and fearful as they may be to those intimately involved in them, are generally so confined as to locality, so limited in the numbers affected by them, are so transient in their effects, and so wholly isolated from questions of morality and Christianity, that rarely does one occur which can be called, properly, a "national calamity." They also, either by natural signs, or by the forecast of the human mind, are so far discovered, that in some measure, men are prepared for their coming before the hour, in which the general grief shall smite them; when the billows of public woe shall be lashed to foam, and beat over them with sullen roar, and irresistable force. The citizens of these United States are to-day in the dust, agonized, bewildered, stunned by the national calamity which has smitten them down. Sudden as the crashing thunder, sounding through the clear sky, fearful and deadly as the swift fiery bolt that rends the gnarled oak, it fell upon us. A deed hath been enacted without a parallel in all the annals of earthly history! excepting Him whose resurrection from the dead, millions shall this day celebrate, who came the only begotten of God; who was God, and hence not to be brought into comparison with mere man. Excepting only the God-man our Saviour, there has been so sad a death! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Fully revised and expanded, this new work is the first major revision of the liturgical calendar of the Episcopal Church in more than 40 years! It is the official revision of Lesser Feasts and Fasts and authorized by the 2009 General Convention. All commemorations in Lesser Feasts and Fasts have been retained, and many new ones added. Three scripture readings (instead of current two) are provided for all minor holy days. Additional new material includes a votive mass of the Blessed Virgin Mary, many more ecumenical commemorations, plus a proper for space exploration. For years the oft revised volume, Lesser Feasts and Fasts (LFF), has served parishes and individuals mark part of the holiness of each day by providing Scripture readings, a collect, a Eucharistic preface, and a narrative about those remembered on the church's calendar that day whose lives have witnessed to the grace of God. Holy Women, Holy Men (HWHM) is a major effort to revise, but also to expand and enrich LFF. Where LFF provided two readings (gospel and other New Testament) plus a psalm, HWHM adds an Old Testament citation. Where LFF was limited to few non-Anglicans in the post-reformation period (and few non-Episcopalians after 1789), HWHM dramatically broadens appreciation for other Christians and their traditions. Over-emphasis on clergy is redressed by additional laity, males by females, and "in-church" activities by contributions well beyond the workings of institutional agendas. These almost daily commemorations occupy over 600 of the book's 785 pages, by far the lion's share of its content. Remaining sections address: principles of revision and guides for future revision; liturgical propers for seasons (Advent/Christmas, Lent, and Easter); and new propers for a miscellany of propers usable with individuals (or events) not officially listed in the formal calendar. Two cycles of propers for daily Eucharist are also included, one covering a six week period, the other a two year cycle.
