Heritage Letter

Imagine receiving a new letter each month from someone significant from America’s great past.  

An explorer, a leader, a statesman, a pioneer, an inventor, a scientist, a doctor, a naturalist, an author, an artist…
A HERO, A HEROINE, A LEGEND.

The Heritage Letter is an engaging, fresh way to learn about America’s history in a living, authentic way.
