In 1751, Pennsylvania cast a bell and had it inscribed with Leviticus 25:10: Proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof. Twenty-five years later, that bell rang over the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence.

Jeremy W. Collins believes the men who built this country forged American liberty the way a foundry forges a bell: the metal, the mold, the casting, the tower. Proclaim Liberty tells the stories of five of them. Joseph Warren pledged everything at Bunker Hill and paid in full. William Penn walked unarmed into Lenape territory and made a peace that held for seventy years. Jonathan Edwards read a sermon in a monotone and shook a continent. Samuel Adams spent twenty years proclaiming the rights of the colonists before one December night in Boston Harbor. John Witherspoon trained the men who wrote the Constitution. All five worked from a Biblical worldview, and each carried an element of liberty a father can still hand down to his children.
