SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk with David O. Stewart
DESCRIPTION:The Democracy We Must Keep: Why the Ideas that Built America
 Still Matter with David O. Stewart\nAward-Winning Historian and Bestselling
 Author of Impeached and The Summer of 1787\nVirtual Event\nJoin us as we
 chat with award-winning historian David O. Stewart about his newest
 work\, The Democracy We Must Keep\, and the question he explores
 throughout the book: What did America's founders say about democracy\, and
 can we remain true to their vision for America?\n\nTwo hundred fifty years
 ago\, passionate men attempted to create something the world had never seen
 before: a nation built not on kings or armies\, but on ideas where the
 people ruled.\n\nIn The Democracy We Must Keep\, historian David O.
 Stewart takes readers inside the nine key documents that shaped the
 formation of the United States—from Patrick Henry's thunderous cry for
 liberty to the carefully crafted design of a government chosen by the
 people\, with limits on all officials holding power under the
 Constitution.\n\nThrough the words of seven visionary
 founders—Washington\, Jefferson\, Madison\, Hamilton\, Gouverneur
 Morris\, and others—Stewart shows how a fragile experiment in
 self-government took shape.\n\nThese men were not saints. They argued
 passionately. They worried that the new nation might fall apart. Yet
 together\, they forged the principles that must still define American
 democracy:\n\n 	Power must be limited.\n 	Leaders must answer to the
 people.\n 	Individual rights must be protected by law.\n\nAs the United
 States celebrates its 250th anniversary\, The Democracy We Must
 Keep urges readers to rediscover core ideas that built the nation—and to
 consider what it will take to protect them.\n\nRegister today to gain a
 deeper understanding of how American democracy started\, why it still
 matters\, and the active role each generation must play to uphold it.
