"In the stew that is the history of the American Revolution, ‘Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God’ is a superb main ingredient. Eschewing the popular political correctness or revisionist historical rewriting, Stackhouse lays out a well-researched and accurate picture of how Christianity played a key foundational role in the American Revolution and in the formation of the republic. This is a significant work that takes a solid position against those who argue outlying positions that America was either a wholly secular creation, or that America was always governed by Christian precepts. Required reading for anyone who wants an accurate and balanced view of American Revolution history. I look forward to a significantly expanded future work. First rate bibliography."
