Lanham, Maryland: Rowan and Littlefield. 2004. Octavo Size [approx 15.5 x 22.8cm]. Near Fine copy in Near Fine dustjacket. DJ now protected in our purpose-made plastic sleeve. An excellent copy. xii, 329 pages. The Founders wrote in 1776 that "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" are unalienable American rights. In this book, Cannon traces the roots of Jefferson's powerful phrase and explores how it has been embraced by wartime presidents for two centuries. Cannon charts how Americans' understanding of the pursuit of happiness has changed through the years as the nation itself has changed. In the end, America's political leaders have all come to the same conclusion as its spiritual leaders: True happiness, either for a nation or an individual, does not come from conquest or fortune or even from the attainment of freedom itself. It comes in the pursuit of happiness for the benefit of others. , professional packaging and tracking provided for all parcels. . 1st Edition. Hardback.
