Acclaimed historian David McCullough's The American Spirit is as inspirational as it is brilliant, as simple as it is sophisticated. It will at the same time make you laugh and give rise to tears of despair. . . . This is not patriotic boilerplate. McCullough is a historian and a realist. He sees his nation with all its warts, beginning with its indelible birthmark of slavery and continuing through to today's government dysfunction and political polarization. Yet he remains confident and upbeat., A national treasure, McCullough performs a national service in The American Spirit . Insightful and inspirational, it summons a vexed and divided nation to remember - and cherish - our unifying ideas and ideals., "McCullough perfectly embodies the part of remember-in-chief. . . . Happily, the same qualities that inform McCullough's histories and biographies also shape his speeches. He is, whether at his desk or a lectern, a consummate storyteller."  , "A carefully crafted, well-reasoned, heartfelt testament to what this nation can be -- past, present, and we must believe -- future."  , McCullough perfectly embodies the part of remember-in-chief. . . . Happily, the same qualities that inform McCullough's histories and biographies also shape his speeches.

Synopsis
A New York Times Bestseller A timely collection of speeches by David McCullough, the most honored historian in the United States--winner of two Pulitzer Prizes, two National Book Awards, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom, among many others--that reminds us of fundamental American principles. Over the course of his distinguished career, David McCullough has spoken before Congress, the White House, colleges and universities, historical societies, and other esteemed institutions. Now, at a time of self-reflection in America following a bitter election campaign that has left the country divided, McCullough has collected some of his most important speeches in a brief volume designed to identify important principles and characteristics that are particularly American. The American Spirit reminds us of core American values to which we all subscribe, regardless of which region we live in, which political party we identify with, or our ethnic background. This is a book about America for all Americans that reminds us who we are and helps to guide us as we find our way forward., A timely collection of speeches by David McCullough, the most honored historian in the United States

    The ornament is exactly as described by the seller, and the item looked even better in real life than in the picture! It is in great shape with the pins firmly attached and none appear to be missing. Very well packaged, no damage to contents. Incredibly pleased with the merchandise & seller. The shipping was fast. The price was also good. I’m very happy with my purchase. Thank you.

    Product was exactly as advertised. Packaged well and arrived several days earlier than estimated. Fantastic value on an out of print book. Very satisfied.

    Positive A-Plus: My purchase ("Nickelodeon 90's Series 1 Funko Mystery Minis Vinyl Figures Eliza", Used) was honestly described by the Seller - but I describe it as "very good" over "used" condition, and it was very quickly shipped by the Seller (and very quickly received as a result). Also, my purchase was carefully packaged. An excellent, professional transaction.
