Meacham chronicles our history, exploring the stories behind the songs, and Tim McGraw reflects on them as an artist and performer. Their perspectives combine to create a unique view of the role music has played in uniting and shaping a nation. Beginning with the battle hymns of the revolution, and taking us through songs from the defining events of the Civil War, the fight for women's suffrage, the two world wars, the Great Depression, the civil rights movement, the Vietnam War, and into the twenty-first century, Meacham and McGraw explore the songs that defined generations, and the cultural and political climates that produced them. Readers will discover the power of music in the lives of figures such as Harriet Tubman, Franklin Roosevelt, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Martin Luther King, Jr., and will learn more about some of our most beloved musicians and performers, including Marian Anderson, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan, Duke Ellington, Carole King, Bruce Springsteen, and more.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hana P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Meacham Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList Naalehu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 782.42097 Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
