This book is intended to help families explore the foundations of our freedom and to celebrate our heritage." (Caroline Kennedy)

Writers include Michael Beschloss, Anna Quindlen, Bob Woodward and Marian Wright Edelman. Also included is Caroline Kennedy's profile of the latest award recipient, Kofi Annan. These are just a few of the luminaries who eloquently and passionately record the experiences of the award winners.
