More DescriptionWhen our founding generations sought truth, wisdom and timeless common sense, they looked to the King James Bible. In their time, the language we now consider archaic was clear and easily understandable. But as the distinctively American culture and dialect evolved those elegant and colorful words became more obscure and more difficult to read, much less apply to daily life. And just like new paraphrased versions helped to keep the scriptures fresh and relevant in their age, we need a vibrant new rendering of the words the founding generations left for our ancestors--and now, to us--to carry on their rich legacy of freedom, prosperity and hope for all. On Point: The Founding Fathers in Plain English is written to restore the clarity, relevance and insight found in the words these heroes of liberty passed on to us. In small, daily readings their unique and uncommon sense is once again revealed for the ages. Using their words but our language we see how timely their timeless message is for our generation and, perhaps more significantly, to those who will follow us.(This title is a revised edition of "365: A Founding Fathers' Voting Guide," ISBN-13:978-0-9906344-0-9.)
