Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Hand of God in American History: A Study of National Politics
Why is it that the Bible account of a nation's history is so different from that kind of history which is written about nations in modern times? The Bible speaks of God as having a great deal to do with what was going on, and of his will as a controlling force in the movements of history. The modern history traces everything to secondary causes, mostly to the characters and the wills of leading people, to the external circumstances of the nation's existence, to the in?uence of great movements of public opinion, or to the in?uence one country exercises upon another.
