    1. The American Patriots Almanac: Daily Readings on America by John Cribb An Education On Patriotism 365 reasons to love America! The fife and drum of history mark the time of each passing day. And within their cadence, personalities, conflicts, discoveries, ideas, and nations peal and fade. American history is no different. From the starving time of Jamestown during the Winter of 1609, through the bloody argument of the Civil War, and to today, the United States is a tale best told one day at a time. Best-selling author and educator Dr. William J. Bennett is a master of the story that is the United States. And in The American Patriots Almanac, Bennett distills the American drama into three hundred sixty-five entries- one for each day of the year. Fascinating in its detail and singular in its grasp of the big themes, Bennetts Almanac will make anyone a fan of
    2. history, assembling even some of the most obscure details. Even better, it will make of everyone a patriot. Personal Review: The American Patriots Almanac: Daily Readings on America by John Cribb The American Patriot's Almanac is a book of daily readings on America. This book is filled with great stories of America's history and her founding. In addition to the daily readings there are informational sections which include flag etiquette, The Declaration of Independence and The Constitution of the United States, just to name a few. I found this book to be an excellent reminder as to what the people of this country have done in the past and present in order to give us the freedoms that we hold dear. Many of the readings are heart-wrenching and inspire a deeper sense of awe and patriotism. Some of the stories brought a tear to my eye and was a reminder that we can only imagine what it was like to be a signer of the Declaration, or fighting in the Civil War, or fighting for civil rights. The author seems to have performed extensive research for each of the daily readings, including the timeline snippets at the end of each story. I really enjoyed learning something new everyday. I would highly recommend this book to all who enjoy history, or who just love America.
