Course Description: Understanding a nation’s history is essential for its citizens to recognize their place in the culture, society, and future. Land of Hope: An Invitation to the Great American Story is a brief and balanced overview of the fascinating history of these United States, reflecting the exceptional yet also flawed past of our heritage, uniquely founded on ideas rather than ancestry. This well-written text serves as the spine to our year-long exploration into the profound development known as America. The class will examine the men, women, machines, and movements as well as the art and philosophy that contributed to our country’s development
