The National Monument to the Forefathers, in Plymouth, Massachusetts, was dedicated in 1889 to honor the religious pilgrims who helped to settle land that would become the United States, as well as the core values — faith, morality, trust in law, education, and liberty — guided the settlers as they established their community. The largest solid granite monument in the United States, the Forefathers Monument stands as a tribute to the founders, and the beliefs that inspired their journey across the ocean and provided a foundation for the society they created in the New World.
In 2018, when you are looking at a Nation so horribly split in so many ways, it is good to reflect on what our forefathers actually intended, and frankly learn how it can be put back together again.
An informative booklet on a national monument to our forefathers and the values they esteemed at the founding of our nation. Beautiful monument with significant symbolism and meaning.
Very cool monument. The movie Monumental was cooler than the book. I was hoping for zoomed in colored pictures. But, alas, they were black and white. Great for a report.
