[Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Revolution-Birth-Greatest-Nation-History/dp/1631440888) | [Barnes & Noble](https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/revolution-eric-metaxas/1148561199) | [Books-a-Million](https://www.booksamillion.com/p/Revolution/Eric-Metaxas/9781631440885) With the passion, erudition, and irrepressible wit that have become his signature, Metaxas’s _REVOLUTION: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World_ brings the epic of America’s birth to life so fully that you will feel you are a part of the story, which is precisely the point. By turns deeply moving, gripping, and spectacularly entertaining, these are the stories every American must know, including some of history’s noblest heroes—and some despicable villains. _REVOLUTION_ also touches on the role that sacrifice, character, and faith played in the great struggle for “the Sacred Cause” of liberty. George Washington, John Adams, Nathan Hale, Henry Knox, Horatio Gates, Israel Putnam, Benedict Arnold and many others all come to life for a new generation of Americans. At more than 500 pages—with photos, maps, and illustrations— _REVOLUTION_ is definitive and sweeping, an astonishing epic containing a dazzling array of stories, ranging from the explosive events that led up to Lexington and Concord, all the way through the impossible twists and turns of the war itself—including the Battle of Bunker Hill, the Crossing of the Delaware, Saratoga, and the bitter winter at Valley Forge—all the way to the final victory in Yorktown and “The World Turned Upside Down.” Unless we ourselves know the true story of the Revolution—what some have called America’s “founding myth”—we cannot play the role we are meant to play in the Revolution that still continues today. This is our story. We need to know it. For such a time as this. “Revolution is a fascinating hybrid — an earnestly principled, high-minded patriotic book about the profound theological roots of the American worldview, which is also chock-a-block with morbidly curious anecdotes, witty asides, and “Ripley’s Believe It or Not” factoids about the pious American founders and their decadent British enemies.” _— John Zmir ak_ _, author of_ No Second Amendment, No First It is hard to imagine that something so clearly the product of prodigious labor reads so swiftly, easily, and pleasurably. Or that the fluid and graceful presentation of the philosophical background of the American Revolution can be mated so felicitously with the narrative of its events that one is kept not only continually informed but in delighted suspense. Many will comment that the work is a corrective to the common misconceptions proffered by histor
