The Great American Adventure is a mural painting created by Victor Horvath in 1976. It was formulated into a media history of US-America on September 17, 2001. The book was published upon request April, 2003 by Thorton Publishing. The Great American Adventure spawned Adventur-Cation which is a patent pending education method used to teach children and adults the history of US-America. It is the belief of the book's author that US-America is, at its center, a great country, but too many individuals lack knowledge of US-America's past.
Famous quotes containing the words american and/or adventure:
“During my administration the most unpleasant and perhaps most dramatic negotiations in which we participated were with the various leaders of Iran after the seizure of American hostages in November 1979. The Algerians were finally chosen as the only intermediaries who were considered trustworthy both by me and the Ayatollah Khomeini. After many aborted efforts, final success was achieved during my last few hours in the White House.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“Happy a while in Paradise they lay;
But quickly woman longed to go astray:
Some foolish new adventure needs must prove,
And the first devil she saw, she chang’d her love:
To his temptations, lewdly she inclined
Her soul, and, for an apple, damn’d mankind.”
—Thomas Otway (1652–1685)
