Pulitzer Prize-winning author of G-Man and acclaimed historian Beverly Gage takes the ultimate road trip into the American past. Ride along with Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Beverly Gage as she travels the country to see the museums, historic sites, roadside attractions, reenactments, and souvenir shops where Americans learn--and fight--about our history. From the birth of the nation in Philadelphia to Disneyland and the California dream, This Land Is Your Land offers a guided tour of thirteen places and thirteen key moments that define America's greatest successes and challenges. The year 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, a document that proclaimed the liberty and equality of all human beings, but produced a country that often failed to agree upon--or live up to--those ideals. This Land Is Your Land is for everyone who wants to find that history--to experience it and confront it, to celebrate it and condemn it--in the places where it happened. Gage shows that Americans can face their past and still love their country. Toss the book in the back seat--or listen on audio with the windows down--and join the journey.
