A Thanksgiving Discourse: The Rule Of Divine Providence Applicable To The Present Circumstances Of Our Country (1861) is a book written by George Duffield. The book is a discourse on the rule of divine providence and how it applies to the present circumstances of the United States during the Civil War. The author argues that the war is a result of divine providence and that it is a test of the nation’s faith and character. He also discusses the importance of giving thanks to God for his blessings and for the courage and sacrifice of those who are fighting in the war. The book provides a historical perspective on the Civil War and the role of religion in American society during that time. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the United States and the role of religion in shaping its culture and values.Delivered In The First Presbyterian Church Of Detroit, Thursday, November 28, 1860.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
