American history is integrated into every moment of our lives as we interact with her laws and thrive under her freedoms. Though the cadence changes over the decades and ideas and nations wax and wane, American history is a drama well-worth telling. Distilling American history---from Jamestown's 'starving time' to the Civil War to the present---into 365 entries for each day of the year, this Almanac will convert anyone into a history buff and a patriot.
This revised and expanded edition now includes:
A new Preface and updated facts and figures
Updates to the American History Parade lists and daily readings
New special sections on 'Faith and the Founders,' 'State Facts and Symbols,' and 'Fifty American Quotes.'
