In 1857, four million Americans were held in legal bondage, and there seemed to be no peaceful way to set them free. Sounding Forth the Trumpet brings to life one of the most crucial epochs in our nation's history -- the events leading up to and precipitating the Civil War. Writing in a fast-paced, dramatic style, the authors highlight the Mexican War and the Gold Rush, the skirmishes of Bleeding Kansas, the emergence of Abraham Lincoln, and the dark saga of John Brown. They focus on the tragic issue of slavery, opening with John Quincy Adams's heroic struggle to preserve the right of petition in Congress and closing with the erection of 1860. This third volume in the series that also includes The Light and the Glory and From Sea to Shining Sea shows how ordinary men and women, willing to be used by God, can change the course of history.
