A couple of years ago I discussed the origin and spread of the motto “Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God,” linked to Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson.
One of the books I looked at was Howard Payson Arnold’s
Historic Side-Lights (1899). Arnold was a Boston lawyer who wrote on a number of topics, including the Warren family.
Try to figure out his topic in this book from the start of the table of contents.
Did you guess, “The development of the Great Seal of the United States”? The contents table did mention it at the start of Part IV, but it gets kind of lost in the shuffle.
