A history of the U.S. for young people — celebrating its vitality, questioning its myths & marking its challenges. America is people, people who walked across the land bridge from Asia & spread across this great expanse, people who carved their homes out of a wilderness & fought for the idea that human beings have inalienable rights & should represent themselves. Famous people & legions of unnamed people who came from countries around the world in search of opportunity & a good life for themselves & their children. Artist Schoenherr draws a portrait of the nation & its people, evoking the warmth, vulnerability, & texture of America.
