Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fundamental question of whether the United States functions as a nation, or rather as a collection of states.

Drawing from speeches, letters, and historical documents, the author traces the evolution of the concept of national unity from the country's founding to the present day, highlighting pivotal moments and key figures.
