This book reveals the overall connection between American holidays, history, culture, and patriotism. Each chapter presents an interesting home-spun account of the holiday's unique history and its ties to America's social and cultural fabric. History of American Holidays brings Americans together with inspirational and thought-provoking stories about sixteen holidays, including in this second edition, the new Juneteenth holiday and an expanded piece on the Fourth of July. Each chapter presents an approachable short read that leaves the reader with an "I didn't know that" moment as well as a sense of patriotic gratitude.
