Editorial Reviews

Product Description
America 100 years ago was a radically different nation than it is today - there were no airplanes, the moon was beyond reach, women could not vote, and African-Americans were not yet truly free. A century later, accomplishments in these areas and dozens of others have changed the face of America, thanks to the tremendous contributions of some special people. Imagine encompasses all the new frontiers that Americans have embarked upon these past 100 years and celebrates the leaders, thinkers, revolutionaries, artists, and scientists who led the way. Each spread features a striking image of one of these heroes and an excerpt from a speech, song, or published work.
