The heroism of the females of the American Revolution has gone from memory with the generation that witnessed it, and nothing, absolutely nothing, remains upon the ear of the young of the present day. -- Charles Francis Adams John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin -- these are the names we typically associate with the American Revolution. But was American History solely written by men? Were there no influential women? No women who had an impact on the founding of America in its crucial, formative years, in its fight for independence? Indeed, there were -- although their contributions have been overlooked or ignored for over two hundred years. Until now. Glory, Passion, and Principle is an extraordinary journey through revolutionary America as seen from a woman's perspective. Here are the lesser-known stories of eight influential females who fought for freedom -- for their country and themselves -- at all costs. Whether advising prominent male leaders in political theory (Abigail Adams), using their pens as swords (Phillis Wheatley, Mercy Otis Warren), acting as military spies (Sybil Ludington, Lydia Darragh), or going to battle (Molly Pitcher, Deborah Sampson, Nancy Ward), these women broke free of the limitations imposed upon them, much as our forefathers did by resisting British rule upon American soil...and laying the groundwork for the United States as we know it today.

A groundbreaking history of the American Revolution that “vividly recounts Colonial women’s struggles for independence—for their nation and, sometimes, for themselves.... [Her] lively book reclaims a vital part of our political legacy" (Los Angeles Times Book Review). The American Revolution was a home-front war that brought scarcity, bloodshed, and danger into the life of every American. In this book, Carol Berkin shows us how women played a vital role throughout the conflict. The women of the Revolution were most active at home, organizing boycotts of British goods, raising funds for the fledgling nation, and managing the family business while struggling to maintain a modicum of normalcy as husbands, brothers and fathers died. Yet Berkin also reveals that it was not just the men who fought on the front lines, as in the story of Margaret Corbin, who was crippled for life when she took her husband’s place beside a cannon at Fort Monmouth. This incisive and comprehensive history illuminates a fascinating and unknown side of the struggle for American independence.

This book is a gallery of over one hundred Jesuits who have played a significant role in the history of the Society of Jesus and can be said to represent it. In the foreground, the actors: saints and scholars, missionaries and martyrs, intellectuals and explorers, a leading exponent of baroque music, and the most original of English poets. Without hiding the embarrassing characters: the non-conformist, the courtier, the embittered, the visionary, the imprudent administrator who brought disaster, and the popular singer who became an alcoholic but rose from the mire. In the background, the Order's history cycle: the promise of spring, the splendor of summer, the crisis of autum, the winter of the expulsions and the suppression (death in four stages), and the second spring of the restoration. The history of the Society of Jesus in its passion and its glory, told in a transparent and direct narrative, not limited to generalities but coming down to earth, to capture it as it happens, fully human and throbbing with life. A flesh-and-blood history. - Back cover.

The Lord is abundant in mercy to all who call upon Him. Jesus was mercy-in-person when He walked on the earth. But how can mercy be like honeysuckle? Just as honeysuckle vines overcome fences, God’s mercy has the power to grow relentlessly in our hearts, conquering all kinds of obstacles that result from our wounded human relationships and limited human reason. As you read and reflect on the scriptural revelations, you’ll discover the life-changing truth that mercy is the Passion, the Presence, and the Glory of God. “Turning Points” at the end of each chapter will guide you through prayer and journaling to help you feel the passion, experience the presence, and see the glory of God as you comprehend God’s Relentless Love for you. Ultimately, as you receive His mercy you will be empowered to show mercy to those around you – even those who’ve wounded you.
