Synopsis

Our Great Inheritance offers a clear look at the enduring power of America’s constitutional guarantees.

This historical address argues for national strength grounded in individual rights, constitutional limits on government, and a cautious approach to international commitments. It frames the present moment as a test of how faithfully the Republic was built to endure.

In these pages, the speaker contrasts past ideals with contemporary debates, urging readers to value liberty, the rule of law, and the dangers of unconstrained power. The work invites readers to consider how constitutional protections can guide policy, defense, and civic responsibility.
  • A defense of individual rights as the core foundation of good government.
  • Warnings about expanding government power and the risks of abstract political theories.
  • Discussion of national strength, economic independence, and the balance between liberty and security.
  • Reflections on history, democracy, and the responsibilities of citizens to preserve the Republic.
Ideal for readers of history, constitutional studies, and political philosophy who want a thoughtful, principled perspective on American governance and preservation of liberty.
