Description

In 1920, while campaigning for the office of president, Warren G. Harding said in a campaign speech, “America’s present need is not heroics, but healing; not nostrums, but normalcy.”

That is where America finds itself today. “America: Standing Strong” brings together investigative reporters, scholars, scientists, philosophers, medical professionals, elected officials across the political spectrum and an endless string of quotes from respected voices, past and present, to examine the events of recent years, not what we already know, but what we may not, or have yet to acknowledge, in our quest for reformation.

Every voice counts.

Advance Praise

“I thought I knew the facts behind all the events we suffered through in recent years. When I read this book, I realized I did not, and I was appalled and angry. So much happened behind the scenes that we skipped over – the lies, the misinformation, the conniving. The author skillfully assembled respected voices who present indisputable facts and truth in plain English. Regardless of race, religion, age, or politics, this book is an eye-opening, tell-all, must-read truth-revealer that everyone should read.” I received an advance copy for an honest review - 5-Stars – PAGEast.

Featured Reviews

I'm German and some of the topics of the book aren't as much "ours" as americans and yet I'd recommend the book to everyone interested in these kind of books.
It's a unique construction here as the book starts, relates and ends with quotes - quotes from people in the far away past, nowadays voices and anyone in between. At first I wasn't sure if this concept is working for me but it did. It fits - topic and quotes, and quite a few "aha-moments" I had. In some ways, so it seems, we and our world and our issues haven't changed so much, they intensified but the basic was there all along.
Great research - must have taken endless time to find all these quotes!

Thanks so much, dear publisher and Netgalley, for the chance to read this book!
