Today we celebrate 233 years of Independence as Americans. I think that today instead of focusing solely on the fireworks and the barbecue, we ought to take some time to read and learn a little more about our nations history. I think that there are quite a few Americans that don’t realize the blood and sweat that was shed to form this great nation. Below I will include some links from different sites around the net with information about our history along with a list of books I’ve read on the subject.
I hope that this weekend you enjoy the freedom and liberty that has been passed down from generation to generation and that God bless America.
