Book description
(The Student Edition offers the reader sixty new pages, including a new foreword from the author, over 600 notes and sources, an enhanced index, and a new bibliography.)With more than 2,000 five-star reviews, readers are raving over this powerful speech to America crafted from the words of the Founding Fathers.

Described as the American narrative, this compelling work is not only the #1 National Bestseller on America's Founding, it is also the much-needed rebuttal to all who would tear down the Founding Fathers of our nation. The continued relevance of the Founders' words-as revealed in this unique, meticulously crafted work-is a clarion call to defend our natural rights that will both stun readers and leave them celebrating America."I was not disappointed in the least The book is written as a speech to the nation, composed of the actual words spoken or written by many of the Founding Fathers and a few others ... This book will move those that are thrilled with the history of our great nation, and give courage to stand against the tide wishing to drown our incredible history with undue criticism and scandal. This book will renew your love of how our country came to be, the benefits we derived from these great men and their lofty ideals, the promise of a new nation conceived in liberty." -P. CreeryAuthor Steven Rabb gives depth to the current conversation and ongoing debate about America's founding ideals, beginning the book with a modern-day telling of the Founding Fathers at Independence Hall, reunited once again to debate the speech they must write to save America today.
