WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS: The Two Beliefs That Still Hold the Power to Transform the Nation and the World

It is time to focus on what the United States has gotten right in the pursuit of liberty in the last 250 years since the nation’s founding. Two beliefs undergird America’s experiment in liberty, and they are articulated in the Declaration of Independence. The book “We Hold These Truths” is a gripping narrative about the impact of these ideals, taking readers through three of the most epic and defining moments in U.S history -- the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War II -- and onto today. Some people featured in the account include Patrick Henry, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, Julia Ward Howe, Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, George Patton, Douglas MacArthur, Ronald Reagan, and Charlie Kirk. “We Hold These Truths” makes clear why the United States became the “land of the free and the home of the brave.”Randall Norman DeSoto is an award-winning screenwriter, a journalist, and a U.S. Army veteran. He is a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, where he studied political science and history. He holds a juris doctorate from Regent University School of Law. Randy’s many life experiences and travels make the events described in “We Hold These Truths” come to life, having “walked the grounds” of many of its historic locations from Boston to Gettysburg to Bastogne.Western Journal founder Floyd Brown said, “Randy DeSoto, the author of ‘We Hold These Truths,’ is a brilliant conservative/Christian thinker and writer. His latest book is essential reading for Citizens looking for a path forward in the current confusing political climate. He distills the essential ideas that represent America's enduring genius, and then DeSoto offers a compelling vision for the future. I highly recommend his book.”“Flashpoint” host Gene Bailey stated, “Randy DeSoto is a rare find. In journalism, it is very easy to become jaded to the world around you, and that is especially so in American culture and politics.” He continued, “Thank God Randy DeSoto has kept a healthy perspective on current events, history, and his faith. In these pages of “We Hold These Truths,” you find a masterpiece of weaving together history, our founders’ faith, and his own faith.”“Most Americans really do not know our nation’s history.
