EDITORS COMMENTS
American Guide Week: November 10-16, 1941 - Take Pride in Your Country During this pivotal moment in American history, as the country prepared for the challenges of World War II, President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal administration launched the American Guide Series through the Works Progress Administration (WPA) Writers Project. This ambitious initiative aimed to create jobs for writers and artists while also promoting tourism and fostering a sense of national pride. This stunning poster, created to mark American Guide Week, showcases a stylized eagle with outstretched wings, symbolizing the strength and resilience of the American spirit. The eagle clutches a scroll in its talons, inscribed with the quote from President Roosevelt: "We must make every phase of our national life a pleasure, an adventure, a meaningful experience to American people." The American Guide Series consisted of a collection of state and regional guides, each one meticulously researched and written by local authors. These guides provided a rich and detailed description of America's history, culture, and natural wonders, inviting Americans to explore their own country and rediscover the beauty and diversity within their borders. As we celebrate American Guide Week, let us take a moment to reflect on the progress our country has made and the importance of preserving our history and heritage for future generations. This poster serves as a reminder of the power of words and the enduring spirit of American ingenuity and pride.
