Text for the 1990's BYU course "American Heritage." I thought it was a very evenhanded look at America, its philosophical origins, its economic premise and its future. The book's question of "what is the good?" struck me. This course and this book forced me to ask some serious questions about my understanding of what America is and what it will be. It remains in my library and I refer to it on occasion.
