Welcome to Litsy!

I loved this collection of news columns--it's a microcosm of American history. The book is split into topic sections, making it easy to pick and choose what you are most interested in. Because the columns are short, it's easy to dip in and out of this book in small spurts. I think this will appeal to news junkies and anyone with an interest in American history.

"I would hope the day will come when I can once again believe what my country says and once again approve of what it does. I want to have faith once more in the justness of my country's causes and the nobleness of its ideals. What I want so very much is to be able once again to root for my own, my native land. "
