More than 2,000 years ago, Nehemiah undertook the rebuilding of his nation. As part of the process, he constructed a House of Heroes (Nehemiah 3:16) by which those in his generation could learn of the courage and sacrifices made by previous ones. Through For You They Signed, Marilyn has created a much-needed inspirational House of Heroes for this generation.

What a unique generation they were, those men of 1776. The intellectual culmination of eighteen centuries of Christian civilization, they possessed not only the most profound intellectual attainments, but each one was prepared to sacrifice his life, liberty, and sacred honor for the ideals of liberty. They were inheritors from the faithful guardians of English common law and constitutional tradition but were now developing a new application for the United States of America.
In a day when Americans confuse heroism with celebrity, and sacrifice with the lateness of a government welfare check, the new book, For You They Signed, by Marilyn Boyer comes as a refreshing reminder that our Founding Fathers were different; not only different, but exemplars of what we as Americans once were and ought to be again.
Not since B.J. Lossings Lives of the Signers in 1848, has an historian so lovingly described the character and fortitude of the men who signed their names to the document that proclaimed independence from a tyrannical government. They risked their lives and those of their families and were forced to flee the invasion of a foreign army and attacks by their own neighbors. In the providence of God, most of them survived to celebrate the triumph of their cause. Most of the signers were men well known for their Christian lives; the legacy sealed by their autographs has blessed the whole world.
Mrs. Boyer has included a helpful study page and appropriate Scriptures, which make this book a handy teaching tool for learning the lives and lessons of the Founding Fathers. This is, in fact, one of those books that needs to be in every familys library, and parents would do well to insure that the next generation does not forget these men and the price they paid for our freedom.

Thank you for your gift of For You They Signed. I have enjoyed reading of our founding fathers and the sacrifices they made to establish our beloved Country. Their dedication to principle and devotion to duty during the perils of the war for independence is an inspiration to our generation in the midst of present difficulties we face as a nation.
I want to thank you for the many hours and personal sacrifices you made to bring to us the story of the brave men who risked their lives for our freedom. May God bless your efforts to restore the integrity and Christian virtue of our founding fathers to our youth today. Your book will be kept as a valuable treasure to my library.

Marilyn Boyer has given all of us who love our country a real treasure. For You They Signed captures an important but little-known history of 56 brave men who risked everything so we could be free. Marilyns easy-to-read, succinct summaries of the lives and faith of these forefathers will inspire you and enable you to pass on this rich heritage to your children. The questions after each chapter help you to make this part of your American history curriculum or an effective weekly evening study. This interesting and challenging, well-researched collection of biographies is truly inspirational!

There are about a half-dozen resources that are must-have staples for the Christian homeschool family For You They Signed is one of them. Easy to read and full of wonderful quotes, this is the book that will teach your children to thank God for the remarkable, God-blessed foundations of their country.

There are three books that every home school family needs to bring to their table this year. For the foundations of our faith and worldview bring your Bible. To help you define your words and build your vocabulary in terms of that Christian worldview bring your Websters 1828 Dictionary. But to teach your children to know, understand, and defend the remarkable providence of God in American history and to rejoice in the gift of liberty He has bestowed on them you must bring Marilyn Boyers For You They Signed.
Here is why: For You They Signed is an antidote to the rampant historical revisionism dominating the schools and media today. Our founders were not atheists. Nor did they believe in some deistic God who was disconnected from the affairs of men. In fact, they were one of the most theologically literate and God-fearing generations in the history of Western civilization.
