The only book ever written in the history genre that succinctly tells the progressive and redemptive course of America as revealed in the stories behind the American holidays.

Ever wonder why everyone wants to immigrate to America? Rediscovering America answers that question, and it’s like no other history you have ever encountered. More than an account of people, dates, and events, this story is about the hidden hand of a purposeful historical development where the main actors are colorful characters, participating in an American drama of little-known but remarkable events where overcoming incredible odds of failure is more unbelievable and engaging than fiction. And while each chapter is a stand-alone tale - some quite wild - about what is behind each of the American holidays, the appeal of Rediscovering America is in the narratives that link the holiday stories together, revealing an account of progress and redemption in America covering over four hundred years - never before told in a concise and listenable book.

How wonderful to learn more of the history behind our national holidays and leaders. How discouraging to see how our educationally supported restricted views regarding the teaching of history has lead to such ignorance that it appears that many of our governmental representatives know little to nothing about our Constitution.

Thank you for this book! May we hunger and thirst for truth. May we see the darkness and deceit for what it is and truly stand as lighthouses for freedom.
We need wisdom and courage. Our nation needs healing.

Enlightening and Encouraging

This book was a severely one-sided biased depiction of what America should be, based on the false ideology that a Christian God is somehow pulling the strings behind the scenes. The author is delusional in fantastical thinking, and would like to see a return to a predominant Christian nationalism running the country. He left out many details about the harms of religious influence on humanity, while highlighting only the minority of positives that may have come from people who were compelled by such fantastical thinking. It was worth listening to in order to get a refresher on the way in which Christian nationalist conceptualize our country.
