view | Squanto and the Miracle of Thanksgiving 60% OffThe actual hero of the Thanksgiving was neither white man nor Indian, but God. In 1608, English traders came to Massachusetts and captured a 12-year old Indian, Squanto, and sold him into slavery. He was raised by Christians and taught faith in God. Ten years later he was sent home to America. Upon arrival, he learned an epidemic had wiped out his entire village. But God had plans for Squanto. God delivered a Thanksgiving miracle: an English-speaking Indian living in the exact place where the Pilgrims land in a strange new world. Of all the Thanksgiving books, this account comes closest to describing the holiday's religious roots and historical beginnings in a lovely illustrated picture book. Hardcover. Hardcover, 32 pages for ages 6 to 11 years.

view | America's Providential History Studying American history has brought me such increased witness of God's hand in our nation's history! He truly guided and directed the events of America's founding. This excellent volume is unique in its content and in its aim—to show how God has led and guided this nation. I have discovered information in this book that I've never seen elsewhere. Did you know that when George Washington was sworn into office he leaned over and kissed the Bible?! Did you know that the starving Continental Army was unexpectedly fed a miraculous supply of fish? Using pitchforks and shovels, the men plunged into the freezing water to throw thousands of shad up onto the snowy banks of the Schuylkill River, providing plenty of food for the army. Each inspiring page details God's workings, from the inception of liberty, through the Pilgrim period, the Revolution, and the Civil War. Ends with a call for Americans to turn back to God. Paperback, 294 pages, black-and white-drawings throughout.
