Publisher's Synopsis
The Book of the American's Creed by William Tyler Page is a comprehensive exploration of the American Creed, which is a statement of the values and principles that define the United States of America. The book delves into the history and significance of the Creed, which was written by Page himself in 1917. The Creed is a concise statement of American ideals, including freedom, democracy, justice, and equality. The book is divided into three parts: the first part provides an overview of the Creed and its origins, the second part explores the meaning and significance of each line of the Creed, and the third part includes a variety of patriotic speeches, essays, and poems that illustrate the values embodied in the Creed. Throughout the book, Page emphasizes the importance of the Creed as a unifying force for the American people, and he argues that it is essential for citizens to understand and embrace the values it represents. He also explores the ways in which the Creed has been used in American history, from its adoption by the U.S. House of Representatives in 1918 to its incorporation into the Pledge of Allegiance. Overall, The Book of the American's Creed is a thought-provoking and inspiring exploration of the values that have shaped the United States of America, and it is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the principles that define the American identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
