Throughout this engaging narrative, the tragic issue of slavery provides focus, from John Quincy Adams' struggle to preserve the right of petition in Congress to the history-changing election of 1860.Now repackaged for a new generation, Sounding Forth the Trumpet exposes a dark chapter in our nation's history and at the same time explores the young nation's drive toward freedom and independence.Peter Marshall is a nationally recognized speaker on Christian growth and maturity and on America's Christian heritage.
