| 520 | _a"Proclaim Liberty!" by Gilbert Seldes is a historical account written during the World War II era. The work addresses the themes of American unity, character, and destiny in the context of war, specifically focusing on the existential threats posed by the Axis powers. Seldes aims to persuade readers about the importance of recognizing and embracing America's heritage of freedom and democracy as vital to overcoming these threats. The opening of the book presents a dire assessment of the situation facing America during World War II, emphasizing that a powerful force now exists that could destroy the nation. Seldes discusses the need for Americans to unify and understand their shared purpose in fighting for their liberty. He critiques the notion that the attack on Pearl Harbor brought about a new sense of unity among Americans, arguing instead that true unity requires deeper recognition of their historical character and collective identity. He asserts that understanding the nature of their enemies and the stakes of the conflict is essential for ensuring victory and preserving American ideals. This sets the thematic tone for the subsequent chapters, which delve into the character and destiny of America, and the necessary strategies for its citizens during wartime.
