Detail "Patriot's Handbook" edited by Caroline Kennedy
The Patriots Handbook Story aired: Wednesday, May 14, 2003
Any book that would include Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi," an excerpt from "To Kill a Mockingbird" and George W. Bush's address on terrorism before a joint meeting of Congress is quite an eclectic book.
When you add the writings of Oscar Wilde, Mark Twain, and Ronald Reagan smack up against the lyrics of Cole Porter and Bruce Springsteen, it becomes quite a big book. But patriotism is a big topic.
Caroline Kennedy's new compilation is called "The Patriots Handbook: Songs, Poems, Stories, and Speeches Celebrating the Land We Love, " and she joins Here and Now to talk about it.
