What Hath God Wrought: The Transformation of America,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Howe, Daniel Walker, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, The Oxford History of the United States is by far the most respected multi-volume history of our nation. In this Pulitzer prize-winning, critically acclaimed addition to the series, historian Daniel Walker Howe illuminates the period from the battle of New Orleans to the end of the Mexican-American War, an era when the United States expanded to the Pacific and won control over the richest part of the North American continent. Howe's panoramic narrative portrays revolutionary improvements in transportation and communications that accelerated the extension of the American empire. Railroads, canals, newspapers, and the telegraph dramatically lowered travel times and spurred the spread of information. These innovations prompted the emergence of mass political parties and stimulated America's economic development from an overwhelmingly rural country to a diversified economy in which commerce and industry took their place alongside agriculture. In his story, the author weaves together political and military events with social, economic, and cultural history. He examines the rise of Andrew Jackson and his Democratic party, but contends that John Quincy Adams and other Whigs--advocates of public education and economic integration, defenders of the rights of Indians, women, and African-Americans--were the true prophets of America's future. He reveals the power of religion to shape many aspects of American life during this period, including slavery and antislavery, women's rights and other reform movements, politics, education, and literature. Howe's story of American expansion culminates in the bitterly controversial but brilliantly executed war waged against Mexico to gain California and Texas for the United States.

Is God Done With America?

Is God Done With America?: America, drifting away from God and in a grave moral crisis, stands at a major spiritual crossroads The truth of how this nation was founded and what its founders believed is being suppressed. Is America a Christian nation Were America&apos s founders Christians Does America have a prophetic destiny If so, will America fulfill that destiny These questions and more are answered by Rabbi Eric Carlson in " Is God Done with America ". Based upon the " One New Man" of Ephesians 2:15, America&apos s spiritual DNA was established through a prayer spoken twice a day at the birthplace and spiritual root of America, Jamestown Settlement, Virginia by the founding colonists. A portion of this prayer, exactly as it was written and quoted from the book " Lawes Divine, Morall and Martiall for the Colony of Virginea", printed in the year , was spoken twice daily. " A Praier duly said Morning and Evening upon the Court of Guard, either by the Captaine of the watch himselfe, or by some one of his principall officers". And call in the Jewes together with the fulnesse of the gentiles, that thy name may be glorious in all the world, the dayes of iniquity may come to an end, and we with all thine elect people may come to see thy face in glorie, and be filled with the light thereof for evermore.

The End of Energy: The Unmaking of America's Environment,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Graetz, Michael J., PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), Americans take for granted that when we flip a switch the light will goon, when we turn up the thermostat the room will get warm, and when we pull up tothe pump gas will be plentiful and relatively cheap. In The End of Energy, MichaelGraetz shows us that we have been living an energy delusion for forty years. Untilthe s, we produced domestically all the oil we needed to run our power plants, heat our homes, and fuel our cars. Since then, we have had to import most of the oilwe use, much of it from the Middle East. And we rely on an even dirtierfuel--coal--to produce half of our electricity. Graetz describes more than fortyyears of energy policy incompetence--from the Nixon administration's fumbledresponse to the OPEC oil embargo through the failure to develop alternative energysources to the current political standoff over "cap and trade"--and arguesthat we must make better decisions for our energy future. Rather than pushingpolicies that, over time, would produce the changes we need, presidents have swungfor the fences, wasting billions seeking a technological "silver bullet"to solve all our problems. Congress has continually elevated narrow parochialinterests over our national goals, directing huge subsidies and tax breaks tofavored constituents and contributors. And, despite thousands of pages of energylegislation since the s, Americans have never been asked to pay a price thatreflects the real cost of the energy they consume. Until Americans face the factsabout price, our energy incompetence will continue--and along with it the unravelingof our environment, security, and independence.

With millions of copies of "The Secret" in print, countless readers are left wondering how its teachings fi t with the truths found in Scripture.

Author Dr. Henry Cloud shows readers how to unlock the treasure of these truths and ignite their power in their lives.
