About this book
In a pivotal moment of American history, the ideals of liberty and individual rights were fiercely debated, laying the groundwork for a nation. "What So Proudly We Hail..." by Day Keene delves into the complexities of these foundational concepts, exploring themes of unalienable rights and the Second Amendment through the eyes of Ephraim Hale, a man from the late 18th century. Transported to the mid-20th century, Hale grapples with the evolution of American identity and values. This thought-provoking narrative is ideal for students, civic activists, and historians seeking to understand the enduring impact of these principles on contemporary society. Keene's work invites readers to reflect on the essence of freedom and the responsibilities that accompany it.
