Review

     As the beloved patriotic hymns proclaim, God directs the affairs of men, and America is the Lord's chosen land of liberty!
     This inspiring book gives detailed coverage on vital subjects such as:
       – America as a choice land of promise, as foreseen in the Book of Mormon and the                         Doctrine and Covenants
       – Little-known statements by America's founding fathers showing that this nation was                       founded with divine assistance and guidance
       – Statements by LDS leaders showing that the U.S. Constitution is a God-inspired                           document
       – A refreshing focus on what's right with America, explaining thirty-eight freedoms enjoyed                in the United States of America which are not found in many other countries
       – Principles concerning attitudes for the last days based on eternal perspectives
       – Items of counsel concerning spiritual preparations for survival in the approaching turbulent               last-days era
       – Recommendations for temporal preparations for last-days survival
       – Scriptural counsel for interacting with others in the last days
       – Suggestions and counsel for being an effective citizen
     Here are powerful concepts concerning this God-prepared land and its future. America—
God's Chosen Land of Liberty
merits the thoughtful consideration of every patriotic American.
It is a book that will be read and treasured by Latter-day Saints who love their country and feel a personal concern for the future.
