Remembrance
When Was the Last Time You Felt History?
Remembrance: When Was the Last Time You Felt History? is a journey through the American story told with gratitude, reflection, and respect for the people who carried history forward.
Written for America's 250th anniversary, the book invites readers to remember where they came from, what was given to them, and what they now carry into the future.
This is not history as distant information. It is history as inheritance.
