Publisher's Synopsis
The story of our rise and stagnation through moments that made the United States what it is.
From the Declaration of Independence to the "I Have a Dream" speech, America and its exemplary leaders have built upon one foundational vision: the "city on a hill" as described by John Winthrop. However, as a nation it seems that we have recently lost ourselves. Dr. Bob Dowell delves into the spiritual journey and force behind this essential vision. His travelogue follows great leaders who nurtured the nation, exploring eight key points in history to interpret and assess the exemplary actions that helped progress and enhance the lives of America's citizens. We are a people on pause, but a renewed focus on the divine can help us rediscover our foundational vision and use the past to become better citizens and patriots while finding a new path forward to create an exemplary nation once again.
