An original collection of the most influential documents in
American history, from the bestselling author of A Patriot's
History of the United States.
Since 2005, A Patriot's History of the United States has become a
modern classic for its defense of America as a unique country
founded on principles of justice, equality, and freedom for
all.
The Patriot's History Reader continues this tradition by going
back to the original sources-the documents, speeches, and legal
decisions that shaped our country into what it is today.
The authors explore both oft-cited documents-the Declaration of
Independence, Emancipation Proclamation, and Roe v. Wade--as well
as those that are less famous. Among these are George Washington's
letter to Alexander Hamilton, which essentially outline America's
military strategy for the next 150 years, and Herbert Hoover's
speech on business ethics, which examines the government's role in
regulating private enterprise.
By helping readers explore history at its source, this book sheds
new light on the principles and personalities that have made
America great.
