(Requires Adobe Acrobat.
Mac & PC compatible.)

This "book-on-a-CD" recounts the long journey of Col. John Sobieski, a Unitarian who was the last native born lineal descendant to the Polish throne. By the time he was 25 years old, Sobieski had journeyed across Europe after his family was cast out of Poland to the United States, where he fought with the Union Army in the Civil War, then joined the Jasper Douthit's Unitarian Church in Shelbyville, IL. There, he served several times as Lithia Springs Chautauqua platform manager. Later, he settled in Minnesota and became involved with reform and politics.

EcoLitGy Communications has released the first and second editions on CD presented side by side with annotations and hyperlinks to background information. Invaluable as a Unitarian research tool and as a first-hand trip across Europe, North American battlefields and the political forefront during the age of woman suffrage, temperance and social purity.

Many people were outraged at his ideas because the prevailing thought was that all human beings, including children, were sinful. Finally Alcott was attacked by most parents as dangerous and heretical.
