The celebrity of Parks and Entertainment and author of the New York Times best seller Paddle Your Own Canoe comes back with a second publication that humorously shows 21 characters from our nation's history, from her inception to present day - Nick's personal pantheon of "great Americans". To millions of people, Nick Offerman is America. Both Nick and his persona, Ron Swanson, are recognized for their laughter and patriotism in equivalent measure. After the great success of his autobiography Paddle Your Own Canoe, Offerman now targets the lives of these who encouraged him. From George Washington to Willie Nelson, he describes 21 heroic characters and why they encourage in him such great interpretation. He'll combine both serious history with light-hearted laughter - looking at, say, George Washington's wooden pearly whites to his own experience as a woodworker. The topic matter will also allow Offerman to expound after his favorite issues, which listeners want to listen to - areas such as faith, politics, woodworking and handcrafting, agriculture, imagination, beliefs, fashion, and, of course, beef.
