President Speeches

The best-selling collection of patriotic poems, song lyrics, historical documents, and speeches, edited by and with an introduction by Caroline Kennedy. The America you will meet in A Patriot's Handbook is one that derives its strength from its diversity, and from the way our variety allows us constantly to reinvent ourselves.
