Full description for America's Prophet
Hailed as one of the most original works of history in years, "America's Prophet" reveals how generations of Americans have been inspired by the story of Moses. The pilgrims quoted his story. Franklin and Jefferson proposed he appear on the U.S. seal. Washington and Lincoln were called his incarnations. The Statue of Liberty and Superman were molded in his image. Martin Luther King Jr. invoked him the night before he died. Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama cited him as inspiration. For four hundred years, one figure has inspired more Americans than any other. His name is Moses. Traveling through touchstones in American history, bestselling author Bruce Feiler traces the biblical prophet's influence from the "Mayflower" through today. Meticulously researched and highly readable, " America's Prophet" is a thrilling, original work of history that will forever change how we view America, our faith, and our future.
