Subtitle: The Story of the Declaration of Independence

The Declaration of Independence not only represents a political watershed, but also embodied the deeply held values of America's founders. Using his "Declaration" talk as the foundation, Dr. Ridpath incorporates readings such as "A Nation Was Born in a Day" and "In Flanders Fields" into a stirring, sound-enhanced tribute to the Founders and it makes vividly clear why Ayn Rand once wrote: "If it is ever proper for men to kneel, we should kneel when we read the Declaration of Independence."
