How to improve our lives, our communities, our nation, our world. What is America becoming? Or, more importantly, what can she be if we reclaim a vision for the things that made her great in the first place? In America the Beautiful , Dr. Ben Carson helps us learn from our past in order to chart a better course for our future. From his personal ascent from inner-city poverty to international medical and humanitarian acclaim, Carson shares experiential insights that help us understand ... what is good about America ... where we have gone astray ... which fundamental beliefs have guided America from her founding into preeminence among nations. Written by a man who has experienced America's best and worst firsthand, America the Beautiful is at once alarming, convicting, and inspiring. You'll gain new perspectives on our nation's origins, our Judeo-Christian heritage, our educational system, capitalism versus socialism, our moral fabric, healthcare, and much more. An incisive manifesto of the values that shaped America's past and must shape her future, America the Beautiful calls us all to use our God-given talents to improve our lives, our communities, our nation, and our world.

This is a must read for every American!
Dr. Ben Carson has certainly done his homework and is able to make sense of our current day government in light of our founding fathers and our history. He is very clear about what has made us a "beautiful" nation. Sweet land of Liberty.
He also takes a frank look at some of our mistakes. May we be wise and learn from our mistakes and be good stewards for the generations following us!

Outstanding!!!
One of the best books I have read in a very long time. Dr. Carson has great insight into so many issues, a man with a level head and of great integrity. His rise to great heights from a very difficult beginning is a wonderful tribute to him, and is an example of what anyone can do if they truly want to improve their situation. This book can be of very inspirational value to everyone. His balanced approach to so many subjects and issues should be reviewed and considered by all in this very troubled and divisive time. Some have even suggested he run for president of the United States. Personally, I think he would make a great president.
