Full title: Christian Political Action in an Age of Revolution

Liberty, equality, fraternity! These words rang out in 1789 as the French revolutionaries stormed the Bastille. However, more than the end of French monarchy, this revolution was a full-scale revolt against God, law, and anything that restrains autonomous man. And the revolution continues to this day. Groen van Prinsterer was a Dutch Calvinist who saw where the French Revolution had led European and American culture. His book is an eloquent defense of how the Gospel is the only solution to modern radicalism and of how Christians can and should participate in the realm of politics.
