Review
From Sea to Shining Sea serves several good purposes. Marshall and Manuel develop the scriptural thesis that God has a plan for the nation. They bring out aspects of American history usually neglected by historians with a more secular orientation and reveal the vital difference a Christian can make in the history of a nation. And last but not least, they know how to tell a good story. -- Moody Monthly
