America's Prophet: How the Story of Moses Shaped America

New York Times-bestselling author Feiler reveals how Moses has been America's true Spiritual Founding Father, tracing the influence of the biblical figure from the Mayflower pilgrims to the Civil Rights activists, and showing how very relevant he is today.

Bruce Feiler's New York Times bestsellers Abraham, Walking the Bible, and Where God Was Born brilliantly explored the roots of faith. With America's Prophet, Feiler looks at Moses and the essential role the prophet has played in our nation's history and development. Bruce Feiler's most fascinating and thought-provoking book to date, America's Prophet delves deeply into how the Exodus story and America's true Spiritual Founding Father have inspired many of the most important figures and defining events in this country's history--from the Mayflower Pilgrims to the Civil Rights movement--and how Moses can provide meaning in times of national crisis, even today.
