Meacham writes a celebration of the history and songs of the eras, while McGraw reflects on these songs as an artist and performer. The book features the battle hymns of the Revolution, songs from the defining events of the Civil War, the two World Wars, the Great Depression, the Civil Rights movement and the Vietnam War. Titled Songs of America: Patriotism, Protest, and the Music That Made a Nation, the hardcover release is scheduled for June 11. Amazon has listed the book with a price tag of $30.
