Washington, DC, our nation's capital, is a living symbol that enshrines the values, aspirations, and experiences that began with our Founding Fathers and continues today.
In God We Trust provides a guided tour through DC, offering readers fresh insight into the role that faith has played in the development of our national institutions. Each chapter focuses on a particular historic national treasure, from the National Archives to the Library of Congress, the Capitol Building to the Supreme Court, as well as various presidential memorials. Each chapter explores how the Founders' relationship with God shaped our institutions and became an integral part of the emerging nation.
Also included here is basic information about these historic sites, including opening and closing hours, highlights not to be missed on your next visit to DC, and important websites and resources for further research. The book is lavishly illustrated with reproductions of vintage photographs, postcards, and stamps. A tri-fold map is also included.
Part tour book, part religious reference, part manifesto, In God We Trust will be an important resource for parents, students, and teachers for years to come.
