Today the United States faces more domestic and international challenges than ever before-challenges to our beliefs, our way of life, the very foundations of our country. To meet those challenges, all Americans, regardless of ethnicity, religion or political persuasion, need to understand how America became the great country it is today. Ours is a stirring story, a tale of the triumph of representative government and individual liberty over tyranny. And it is a story that, for more than two centuries, has been told in music. Throughout the years, popular songs have expressed American hopes and wishes, confronted American fears, and literally given voice to the nation's emotions. Songs offer tuneful insight into what earlier generations of Americans knew and thought, how they felt about the great and not-so-great events of the past, and how they coped with the troubles of their own times. American music can help point the way toward handling the nation's 21st century concerns and opportunities. "In Tune with America" melds music and words to tell a story of hope-a hope that today's Americans will focus on the lessons of United States history: the significant events, the trials and tribulations, the outstanding leaders and heroic acts, all of them part of America's great story. This book is a gateway to better citizenship, showing how the United States has achieved its unique position in the world economically, socially and politically. It is also fun, filled with less-known parts of well-known songs, from all four verses of "The Start-Spangled Banner" to the lyrics of Tin Pan Alley.
