A talk about America: who our company is, where we have been, and where we need to go now, to capture the American goal. Tom Brokaw, known and beloved for his landmark work in American journalism and for the New York Times best-sellers The Greatest Era and Increase!, now transforms his attention to the problems that face America in the new millennium, to offer reflections on how we can bring back America's greatness. "What took place to the America I thought I realized?" Brokaw creates. "Have we simply wandered off course, but only briefly? Or have we allowed ourselves to be so divided that we're easy victim for hijackers who could steer us onto a way to a crash getting? ... I do involve some thoughts, original and motivated by others, for our quest into the heart of a fresh century." Rooted in the principles, lessons, and verities of generations earlier and of his South Dakota upbringing, Brokaw weaves jointly inspiring experiences of Americans who are making a notable difference and personal experiences from his own family history, to engage us in a talk about our country and also to offer ideas for how we can revitalize the promises of the North american Dream. Appealing us to foster a rebirth of family, community, and civic engagement as serious as the one which won World Conflict II, built our postwar success, and ushered in the Civil Protection under the law period, Brokaw traces the fascinating, unnerving changes in modern life - in principles, education, general population service, housing, the Internet, and even more - that contain transformed our society in the generations since the years of thrift where he was raised. Offering ideas from Americans who are change agents in their areas, in The Time of Our Lives, Brokaw provides us, a smart, honest, and wide-ranging book, a nourishing eye-sight of hopefulness in an age of dimished targets.
