My Country ’Tis of Me

Title: “America by Heart: Reflections on Family, Faith, and Flag”

Rank: 8

Blurb: “Ranging widely over American history, culture, and current affairs, Governor Palin reflects on the key values that have been such an essential part of her own life and that continue to inform her vision of America’s future.”

Review: “I thought this was going to be a book of virtue and faith. Instead it was a book in which Sarah Palin puts down anybody and everybody who does not agree with her philosophies and beliefs.”
