About this book

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Discover 365 reasons to love America as you read the storied history of the United States.

The fife and drum of history mark the time of each passing day. And within their cadence, personalities, conflicts, discoveries, ideas, and nations peal and fade. American history is no different. Best-selling author and educator Dr. William J. Bennett is a master of the story that is the United States.

In The American Patriot's Almanac, Bennett distills the American drama into 365 entries--one for each day of the year, with stories including:

the starving time of Jamestown during the Winter of 1609
the bloody argument of the Civil War
the invention of items such as Teflon

The stories in this book are part of what Abraham Lincoln called the “mystic chords of memory.” They are the symbols that define the essence of the United States, that mark its historic course, and connect its people.

The American Patriot’s Almanac is a daily source of inspiration and information about the history, heroes, and achievements that sum up what this nation is all about.
