Almost always when we think of Ghost Stories, we first think of those written by the Victorians. When you consider the depth of literary talent available over the extraordinary length of Queen Victoria’s reign, allied to the fascination with their all things spiritual on ‘the other side’, then perhaps it’s simply right place, right time.

This book tells American stories occurring on one day–the Fourth of July–beginning with the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, and throughout our 250 year history. The Declaration of Independence announced that the new nation was grounded in an idea: “all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Inside this book’s covers are the Founders who gave birth to that idea–Adams, Jefferson, Washington, with each having more than one consequential Fourth of July.

The rosary is much more than an optional Catholic devotion for the old and dying. In fact, it is a vibrant and powerful intercessory tool in the hands of valiant spiritual warriors. From the moment Our Lady entrusted it to St. Dominic early in the 13th century, the rosary has been at the heart of authentic Catholic devotion. And yet it has also been an indispensable weapon in the hands of intercessors and those who actively resist the workings of the devil.

And he wanted mine…or so I thought.
