{"product_id":"american-democracy","title":"American Democracy - A Great Leap of Faith","description":"\u003ci\u003eAmerican Democracy: A Great Leap of Faith\u003c\/i\u003e is the companion volume  to an exhibition at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History  that celebrates the bold and radical experiment to test a wholly new  form of government. Democracy is still a work in progress, but it is at  the core of our nation's political, economic, and social life. This  lavishly illustrated book explores democracy from the Revolution to the  present using objects from the museum's collection, such as the portable  writing box that Thomas Jefferson used while composing the Declaration  of Independence, the inkstand with which Abraham Lincoln drafted the  Emancipation Proclamation, Susan B. Anthony's iconic red shawl, and many  more. Not only famous voices are presented: like democracy itself, the  book and the exhibition preserve the voice of the people by showcasing  campaign materials, protest signs, and a host of other items from  everyday life that reflect the promises and challenges of American  democracy throughout the nation's history.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50973752688928,"sku":"9781588345318","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9781588345318.jpg?v=1764191871","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/products\/american-democracy","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
