Historical Society Book Club - This Land is Your Land: A Road Trip

In celebrating our 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this book explores some of the results of the "big ideas" of our founding fathers. Some ideas worked spectacularly well from the beginning, other issues we are still trying to work through. The author visits National Parks, tourist attractions and gift shops where we can learn, confront, and often celebrate thirteen key moments that define America's greatest successes and challenges. Gage shows that Americans can face their past and still love their country.
