Book Description

Excerpt from The Story of Liberty The necessity of teaching, not only to young Americans but to all prospective Americans, the meaning and mis sion of political liberty has but lately found expression in the movement known as Americanization. What is liberty as exemplified in American institutions? Where and how did it originate? Through what struggles and triumphs has it advanced? What peoples have always been its defenders, and how have its influence and bless ings been finally extended to include all nations of the earth? It is upon a knowledge of the facts implied in such questions as these that young American Citizens, whether native or foreign-born, are to become truly Americanized.
