This shocking story of the Gillespie family and their fellow Scots-Irish to gain their freedom and liberty from the cruelties of the English Crown is chronicled from William Wallace to the American Revolutionaries. Their heritage of bravery and zeal led to the establishment of the Bill of Rights to the U. S. Constitution.

This shocking story of the Gillespie family and their fellow Scots-Irish to gain their freedom and liberty from the cruelties of the English Crown is chronicled from William Wallace to the American Revolutionaries. Their heritage of bravery and zeal led to the establishment of the Bill of Rights to the U. S. Constitution. The core of this riveting story is the renowned Scottish Philosophers (Luther, Calvin, Knox, Locke Gillespie, and Rutherford) and their belief in a Liberty of Consciences upon which the principles of America's Constitutional law are founded. The Gillespies ensured the survival of the Presbyterian Church through their unwavering stand against the corrupt Stuart Kings. Revengefully King James II torched, imprisoned, and killed the humble Presbyterian Covenanters. Everyone will be enlightened by the fact that the Westminster Confession of Faith which George Gillespie was instrumental in writing illuminates many ideals upon which America was founded and was a required curriculum for America's founding fathers who attended Harvard, William and Mary, Yale, and Princeton. The Catechisms were the most widely read publication in colonial America second to the Bible. Listed are suggested Constitutional amendments to control the corruption of today's Congress. Obviously, the Scots-Irish colonial pioneers of democracy, who were such visionaries and refused to ratify the Constitution due to lack of control over Congress and the President, would insist on similar controls. You'll discover from a, never before-published, Gillespie family perspective the trials and tribulations of founding the Nation's first public University, The University of North Carolina. Discussed are the Federalists' and Anti-Federalists' turmoils and the campus unrest that were ignited by the passage of the Jay Treaty.
