The American Spirit by David McCullough
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book is a collection of speeches made by the author, and they are a perfect antidote to the partisan bickering that currently fills our media. David McCullough is not only a respected historian, he is a lover of words. His speeches show the depth of his passion for history and his admiration for the unique characters of the men and women throughout our history that have made us who we are. Although many of the speeches are from a decade or more ago, they continue to be relevant today. The wisdom offered by Mr McCullough is inspiring. I listened to the audiobook so I was able to enjoy the speeches in the authors own voice. I highly recommend this book, especially at a time like the present when we all need a reminder of the many courageous individuals who have contributed so much to this country.
