A must read for history lovers -- Very highly recommended

A rich tapestry of voices weave cultures, ages, backgrounds, hopes and dreams in a seamless presentation in TELL IT TO THE FUTURE. Indeed, dry historical data comes to life in pencil drawings and multihued storytelling. As the excitement of American's open door policy gives way to the disillusion of war, the depression, and recovery, only repeat itself, the vibrancy of the American spirit gives voice to the pain and triumphs of each decade. Each chapter lists major events that shaped that decade, an author's story that relates something relevant to the tone of the times, and interesting facts of historical interest.Reminiscent of tradition of storytelling to preserve history, TELL IT TO THE FUTURE relates history through stories told by all generations, weaving a complex and multi-layered history shared by all. Bridging past and future, these voices share their experiences of coming to America and building this country to make it strong despite the challenges of the decades. The stories, poems, artwork, and letters lend a texture and depth that makes TELL IT TO THE FUTURE a must read. Very highly recommended.
