History

Liberty was first called American Sentinel and then Sentinel of Liberty before being shortened to its current name.

The American Sentinel (1886-1900)

The first edition of The American Sentinel, January, 1886 proclaimed:

"THE AMERICAN SENTINEL. AN EIGHT-PAGE MONTHLY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO: The defense of American Institutions, the preservation of the United States Constitution as it is, so far as regards religion or religious tests, and the maintenance of human rights, both civil and religious. It will ever be uncompromisingly opposed to anything tending toward & union of Church and State, either in name or in fact." [1]
