Crown & Covenant Trilogy Complete Study Guide
"Douglas Bond has introduced a new generation to the heroics of the Scottish Covenanters, and he has done it in a delightful way. A gripping tale full of action, purpose, principle, and character." Ligon Duncan, Chancellor/CEO of Reformed Theological Seminary and the John E. Richards Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology.
The Crown & Covenant Trilogy is set in 17th century Scotland during the Scottish struggle for religious freedom in the same century as our Pilgrim Fathers fled to The New World for religious freedom. The Scottish Covenanters were the Christians in the generations after Jon Knox and the Reformation that swept across Scotland, transforming hearts and minds by the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Covenanters were contemporaries of John Bunyan, struggling for the same religious liberties.
