American History to 1865

Like A Christian Survey of World History, Dr. R.J. Rushdoony's American History to 1865 was one of the most influential American history series I had the pleasure of studying during my high school years. More than any other series or book, these prepared me for the philosophical onslaught of historical revisionism I would later meet during my university days. Many of the leading Christian thinkers and writers of our present day were weaned on these outstanding tapes. When you complete this series, you will have a comprehensive and distinctively Christian understanding of almost 300 years of American history. Click here to purchase.

Christ in the Camp

In the midst of the titanic struggle of the American War Between the States, a spiritual war for the souls of men was waged with equal vigor. From 1861 to 1865, many thousands of soldiers professed Christ as their Savior and Lord, and many more were renewed in their commitment to serve God in camp and battlefield. Herein are recorded stories of the heroism of chaplains who stood in the line of battle to minister to the fallen and to work at the bedside of fatally ill comrades. Some of the army pastors were themselves counted among the slain. It tells of worship services in camps attended by ten, a hundred, or a thousand men gathered to hear the Word of God expounded. Here, too, we read of the Christian generals who supported the many facets of Gospel work: Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Jeb Stuart, and others.Click here to purchase.

The Life and Campaigns of Stonewall Jackson

Stonewall Jackson — his very name evokes the image of the solid, immovable Confederate general whose sobriquet, earned at the Battle of 1st Manassas, no longer requires quotation marks. But no one has labeled Thomas Jonathan Jackson a “marble man,” as impenetrable as the statues which commemorate his valor. His pious Christian character, service to the church, unwavering commitment to duty, affectionate role as husband and father, as well as his magnificent service to Virginia were carefully recorded by his close friend Robert Lewis Dabney. Labeled by some a religious fanatic, General Jackson was simply a consistent biblical Christian who lived out his faith every day, seriously and without compromise. The battle accounts in The Life and Campaigns of Stonewall Jackson resonate with the first-hand knowledge of a man who has seen the face of battle, as Major Dabney often did as General Jackson’s adjutant in the Valley Campaign. His account of military life in the field with General Jackson provides poignant insight into the character of the General as they discuss theology and military history, pray together, and gallop to the sound of the guns. Jackson’s theology was supremely orthodox, being rooted in the biblical tradition of Knox, Calvin, and Edwards. In a day bereft of true heroes, Stonewall’s gallant deeds and virtuous conduct still move our hearts with admiration. He shows us how a Christian soldier should live and die. By Robert Lewis Dabney.
