In five six-minute segments, often with the help of on-location actors, the co-authors of The Light and the Glory and From Sea to Shining Sea take a pilgrimage to the roots of America's spiritual heritage. Beginning with the Pilgrims, they climb aboard the replica of the Mayflower and walk the main street of the reconstructed Plymouth Plantation. In Philadelphia, in the very room where the Declaration of Independence was debated and signed, they recapture the drama of the United States of America becoming One Nation Under God. At Mt. Vernon and then at Valley Forge, they see the home life which shaped Washington's faith, and the furnace which tempered it. And at the battlefield of Manassas, with the help of Fritz Klein's indelible portrayal of Lincoln, they look into the heart of our greatest Christian President, as he fulfilled the national vision which Washington had begun.
