What Does it mean to be an American?In The Idea of America: What IT Was and How It Was Lost, visionaries Pierre Lemieux and William Bonner tackle these timeless questions with a refreshingly unique approach. Lemieux and Bonner carefully chose each of the written works included in this striking anthology to spark imagination, thought, and debate. Readers are invited to reexamine long accepted notions of what America is and what it means to be an American.Each of the selections builds on the next, engaging readers in an exploration of concepts that are fundamental to our view of who we are. No stone is left unturned as subjects ranging from individual liberty to religion and self reliance are covered through the words of some of the most creative thinkers ever to put pen to paper. This newly-updated, arresting second edition contains one of the most unique mixes of works ever to be compiled. From the documents that gave birth to America - the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights - to the insightful reflections from the always delightful H.L. Mencken on the American character and Ralph Waldo Emerson's classic words on individual and religious self reliance. The Idea of America is a true celebration of the spirit that is America.
