Most of us can trace the shape of our lives back to a physical placeβa childhood home that played an enormous role in defining how we see ourselves and how we choose to make our way in the world. In Home, John Edwards has collected nearly sixty moving stories that reflect how these places, in many ways, are the blueprints of our lives. Home features uplifting, touching, and engaging narratives from all kinds of people across the countryβeveryday Americans with deeply inspiring stories share the pages with well-known figures from entertainment and religion, from politics and sports. Visit the early homes of: Mario Batali Benicio Del Toro Bob Dole Tommy Franks John Glenn Danny Glover Nanci Griffith Sugar Ray Leonard Maya Lin Jamie-Lynn Sigler Steven Spielberg Vera Wang Rick Warren . . . and many more. Through words, photos, and illustrations, Home paints a moving picture of America at its bestβa country where people, no matter their background, no matter their circumstance, can build a great future. One by one, these different stories reveal our common storyβa story that begins with the home we grew up in, the values it gave us, and the hopes that we share.
