Our American Journeys: Stories of a Nation on the Move
Americans have always been a people on the move. We pushed west on the Oregon Trail, rode midnight through Lexington, fled north on the Underground Railroad, chased gold in California and drove Route 66 just to see what was out there. Movement is how we've made sense of ourselves from the very beginning.
"Our American Journeys: Stories of a Nation on the Move" follows more than a dozen of these trips — from Paul Revere's ride to the Space Race, from Ellis Island to baseball's long road toward inclusion. Follow history and see where these stories live today: the trails you can still walk, the towns that gold built, the blues joints along the Mississippi that haven't changed much since the 1940s.
Published in partnership with USA TODAY to mark America's 250th anniversary, this 160-page hardcover brings these stories to life with photography and reporting worthy of the occasion.
