Discover the Grit Behind the Glory of America
Join author Stephen Carr on a journey through America's forgotten past in Glory, Grit and Greatness: Great Americans Fading From Our Memory.
Bringing history to life with vivid prose, the author has crafted a memorable tribute to extraordinary Americans whose names and deeds have faded with time, but whose legacy of courage, genius and raw grit lives on.
From the industrialist who transformed the nation, to the immigrant who wrote its greatest song, from a squad of valiant lawmen to a roll call of war heroes, to name a few, these are people who inspired us, made us cheer, kept our streets safe, and fought for our freedoms, people who deserve to be remembered.
Meticulously researched, the book is ideal for history enthusiasts as well as anyone who enjoys a good read. You'll relive the heartbreak and triumphs of richly drawn characters treading a tortuous path to greatness. Like the Medal of Honor winner haunted by the memory of combat. Or the entertainer who battled an addiction, even as she captured the nation's hearts.
More than just a history lesson, Glory, Grit and Greatness is a celebration of the American spirit. The book will tug at your heart strings, make you smile, and keep you on the edge of your seat. And remind you why you're proud to be an American.
