OUR FOUNDERS understood that America was the greatest experiment on earth. And they sealed it with these words: E pluribus Unum: "Out of Many We Are One." "America is the story of us. And us isn't doing so great right now." Says award winning journalist and author Sophia A. Nelson. Coming on the heels of the raucous and divisive 2016 general election campaign, Nelson attempts to give the nation an inspirational charge and lift by helping us to reclaim our founders' vision for a united and strong America. Nelson reminds us that "we the people" are charged by our founders' to cherish life, liberty, freedom and equality, as well as to safeguard the nation from intrusive governance. The founders' also charged our leaders to be moral, virtuous, patriotic servants of the people. In this groundbreaking book, Nelson challenges us to live out the call of our founding: We are ONE America. We are ONE People. We are ONE nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all. Pulling from our founding fathers' core principles of liberty, citizenship, morals, virtues, civic engagement, equality, self-governance, and, when required, civil disobedience, Nelson calls us to a higher standard. She calls us to purpose. And she calls us to rediscover the things that unite us, not divide us. One is a book that all Americans, regardless of political party, race, religion, or gender can embrace and share with their children and grandchildren for generations. It is a reminder simply of what makes America great and what makes us the envy of the world. Alexis de Tocqueville said it best: "America is great because America is good. If America ever ceases to be good, it will cease to be great." Nelson takes us on a historical, yet very inspirational journey of not just our founding values, but the men and women who walked them out and brought America to be the great light it is in the world over the past 240 years.

Very Good in Very Good jacket. BE1-A first edition (stated) hardcover book SIGNED and inscribed by author to previous owner on the title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket.

And they sealed it with these words: E pluribus Unum: "Out of Many We Are One." Our Founders believed that we would stand as a great nation only if we stood united. In their brilliant vision of who we could one day become as Americans, they honored the right to protest, to bear arms, to choose our own elected representatives, to freely assemble, to own property, to engage in free enterprise, to pursue happiness, and to follow our own religious beliefs. Most important, they understood that from our great diversity of citizens would come our greatest strengths. Coming on the heels of the raucous and divisive 2016 presidential primary and general election campaign, as well as a period of extreme national unrest and protests, this book was written to give the nation a lift by helping us rediscover our lost political Compass, Civility, and Codes. In sharing the stories and contributions of many Americans from different times throughout our nation's history, from Paul Revere to Sojourner Truth to Bob Woodward, E PLURIBUS ONE reminds us that "we the people" have been charged by our Founders to safeguard our nation from intrusive governance, and to lead with morals, virtue, and accountability to the people. E PLURIBUS ONE is a book that all Americans, regardless of political party, race, religion, or gender, can embrace and share with their children and grandchildren for generations. It is a reminder of what makes America great and what makes us the envy of the world.
