America is a vast country--three thousand miles from end to end. But it's not the land that makes America so special--it's the people.

He connects with people, capturing their values, dreams, and passion in a journey that reveals the stories--unusual, captivating, inspiring and emotional--that make Americans into something more than a collection of individuals. It's a celebration of a nation told through the voices of its people
