Clearly, their most precious cargo was the Bible. Have you ever
wondered what version of the Bible the Pilgrims brought to America
on the Mayflower? Believe it or not, it was not the King James
Version of 1611. It was actually The 1599 Geneva
Bible - a forgotten yet priceless treasure!
This

study notes, and is available in five formats: black bonded leather

AND, you'll also receive a FREE DVD MOVIE-God's Outlaw-which tells the
remarkable story of the life and martyrdom of William Tyndale.
Tyndale's singular passion was to see the Bible translated into
English so the common man could read the Word of God for
himself.

America's rich Christian heritage and reclaim the culture for

The
Geneva Bible, printed over 200 times between 1560 and 1644, was
the most widely read and influential English Bible of the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries. This superb translation was the product
of the best Protestant scholars of the day and became the Bible of
choice for many of the greatest writers, thinkers, and historical
figures of that time. Men such as Shakespeare, John Bunyan, and John
Milton used the Geneva Bible, and it was reflected in their
writings. During the English Civil War, Oliver Cromwell issued a
pamphlet containing excerpts from the Geneva Bible to his
troops. William Bradford cited the Geneva Bible in his book
Of Plymouth Plantation.
The
Geneva Bible is unique among all other Bibles. It was the first
Bible to use chapters and numbered verses and became the most
popular version of its time because of the extensive marginal notes.
These notes, written by Reformation leaders such as John Calvin,
John Knox, Miles Coverdale, William Whittingham, Anthony Gilby, and
others, were included to explain and interpret the scriptures for
the common people.
For nearly
half a century these notes helped the people of England, Scotland,
and Ireland understand the Bible and true liberty. The Geneva
Bible was not authorized by the government. It was truly a
Bible by the people and for the people. You can see why this
remarkable version with its profound marginal notes played a key
role in the formation of the American Republic.
Sadly, 407
years after its original publication, this wonderful version of the
Bible has been nearly forgotten. That is, until now. For the first
time in more than 400 years, you can read and own the Bible of the
Pilgrims!
The 3 most influential textbooks in American
history are back in print after 180 years!
The
American Dictionary of The English Langauage (1828)
This gigantic, oversized, heavy book is perhaps second only
to the Bible in terms of importance in your home. When Noah Webster
first published this book, he understood that whoever defined the
words of a culture would capture that culture. So he sought to give
the American people a dictionary in which words have meaning in
terms of their relationship to Jesus Christ.
Hardback, 2000 pages, forest green vellum hardcover, embossed
gold-stamped Paul Revere eagle.
The Original Blue Back Speller
The great American educator Noah Webster first published A
Grammatical Institute of the English Language, otherwise known as
the Blue Back Speller, in 1783. His goal was to provide a
uniquely American, Christ-centered approach to training children.
Little did he know that this remarkable gem would become the staple
for parents and educators for more than a century and would help to
build the most literate nation in the history of the West. Many of
the Founding Fathers used this book to home school their children,
including Benjamin Franklin who taught his granddaughter to read,
spell, and pronounce words using "Old Blue Back." Facsimile edition.
Hardback (168 pages)
The New England Primer
The single most influential Christian textbook in history.
Most scholars agree that most, if not all, of the Founding Fathers
were taught to read and write using this volume which is unsurpassed
to this day for its excellence of practical training and Christian
worldview. First published in 1690, the goal of the Primer was to
combine the study of the Bible with the alphabet, vocabulary, and
the reading of prose and poetry. This is the book that introduced
the children's prayer, "Now I lay me down to sleep," and which made
the "Shorter Catechism" a staple of education for American children.
More than five million copies were sold in the nineteenth century
alone. Facsimile edition written with older modern-English
characters authentic to the founding era. Hardback (80 pages)
