An engaging picture book for children that celebrates what it means to be American--regardless of politics What does it mean to be American? Does it mean you like apple pie or fireworks? Not exactly. While politics seem to divide our country into the two opposing teams of red and blue, one truth remains: we are all Americans. But what does that mean? This continuation of the popular What Does It Mean to Be...? series provides a nonpartisan point of view perfect for any and all Americans who are proud of who they are--and where they come from, regardless of their political views. Other Titles in the What Does It Mean to Be...? Series: What Does It Mean to Be Present? What Does It Mean to Be Global? What Does It Mean to Be Kind?

Eight epochs of American folk heritage are covered in this collection: Chapter I--The Colonial Period (The British Heritage and Colonial Songs and Ballads); Chapter II--The American Revolution; Chapter III--The Early National Period; Chapter IV--Jacksonian America (Sea and Immigra­tion, The Westward Movement, and Slavery Days); Chapter V--The Civil War (Freedom Songs); Chapter VI--Between the Civil War and the First World War (Farmers and Workers, Immigrants, and The Negro Peo­ple); Chapter VII--Between Two World Wars; and Chapter VIII--Since the War. General introductions to each chapter and specific introductions to individual songs provide the context from which the songs were created. The book is the result of years of classroom teaching. An Afterword (writ­ten especially for this new edition) indicates the usefulness of Ballad of America for social studies, humanities, and literature teachers at all levels. The bibliography and discography, brought up to date for this 1982 edition, indicate resources available to the student or teacher interested in probing more deeply into the musical resources of any given period.
