A man tells someone to “drop dead” and he does. That’s just one of 180 personal, true-life accounts—told in three pages or fewer—in this entertaining yet powerful collection of life in America. The stories are taken from NPR’s National Story Project and come from men and women of all ages, backgrounds and walks of life, and from across the country.

It’s an American quilt to thoroughly wrap yourself in—and to share with others. Softcover book - 416 pages.
