The Idea of America: How Values Shaped Our Republic and Hold the Key to Our Future
The Idea of America How Values Shaped Our Republic and Hold the Key to Our Future Author:H. Michael Hartoonian, Richard Van Scotter, William E. White At the heart of America, this book argues, is a great debate.

The Idea of America shows how these values and the tensions between them have shaped and continue to shape our history.
