Description
The book for America's 250th!
FINDING OUR WORDS: Words That Made America is a collection of some of the most inspiring words spoken by American leaders since our founding, compiled and edited by Allison Ellis, with every speech launched with a prefacing essay by Tracy Lee Simmons, acclaimed journalist and author of Climbing Parnassus, a popular case for classical education in America.
In the essays, Simmons shows how each speech fits into the broad mosaic of the American story. Commerce with these words offers us one path back to citizenship, decency, and good sense.
