Signers of the Declaration of Independence

These signers were committing treason against Britain. They were putting their lives, families, homesteads, communities – everything on the line. And the stakes were impossible. The declaration was an act of war and that war would be waged with the greatest power in the world. How could a rag-tag group of militia armies from 13 colonies of the Crown successfully achieve an outcome that wouldn’t see these signers, especially, in prison and put to death? They were riding on what they knew to be right – freedom – and what they believed to be true – Providence.
