註釋A companion to Founding Character: The Words & Documents That Forged a Nation, Founding Courage: Courage and Character in the United States of America is an inspiring reference that explores the physiological, psychological, and sociological roots of courage and then goes on to demonstrate how courageous actions have helped shape the character of the United States of America. The lives of seven Americans are retold and brought together to show how their successive generations, from the Founding to the near present, all faced critical challenges. How these Americans?George Washington, David Crockett, Robert Gould Shaw, Crazy Horse, Matthew Henson, Rachel Carson, and Karen Silkwood?rose to meet those challenges, and sometimes sacrificed their lives, provide essential lessons in how Americans can continue to overcome the challenges and dangers ahead.
