Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Fall of a Nation: A Sequel to the Birth of a Nation
The sheriff appeals in vain that they yield and live. The grim prelate advances, reads the death warrant, and offers pardon if they renounce their faith. With quiet smiles they lift their heads and pray. The King on his throne has failed. The King within the soul of man is rising to reign. The martyrs are bound to a stake, the fagots piled high, the torch applied. Above the crackle and roar of flames over the hills by the western sea rises their song - the battle hymn of a coming republic of freemen.
