Review # 1 was written on 2020-03-08 00:00:00 David Dozal This was a diverse and interesting collection of America speeches, songs, and other literature. There were some that I skimmed, I'll admit, but other than obvious patriotic speeches that are always included in these collections, there were a host of other selections that lead me to listen to songs or look up people I did not know a lot about. So I think this is a good way to introduce someone to an American collection of documents.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-01-04 00:00:00 Karen Turner This is a fantastic documentary of American freedom, Republican democracy, and a wide assortment of freedoms we have the people have struggled so hard for. As far as American history goes, it is my firm belief that vignettes like those presented in this book are the best way to educate oneself or to entice a young one into studying and enjoying American history.
