Land of the Free, Home of the Brave: America

This is a short book on America. The author shares his view of this country and what he believes others think of it. The book while discussing political, legal, social, economic, religious and race topics takes no stance even though America's hues are defined by these issues. That is left to the reader. It describes why this country is deserving of being called the "land of the free and the home of the brave".

He wants you to know that he is not a journalist, sociologist, political activist, history professor, academician or psychiatrist. Nor is he an opinion leader or a philosopher. He works hard for a living; enjoys movies at the theatre and the company of friends. On weekends he buys his groceries at a nearby mall. He hopes that will make him someone like you. His observations of the country he now lives in, the US, are entirely personal. He admires the country for all that is has achieved and the fabric of its culture built on enduring values.
