Letters from an American

HCR explains the history behind today’s politics

HCR always delivers the news of the day with a calm and clear manner- and always looking at the historical context. Required listening in these trying times.

Clear, concise, factual and should be played in classrooms all across America after the pledge of allegiance. Heather is a great American and historian. Thank you

If I could only subscribe to one current events podcast, it would be Heather Cox Richardson‘s Letters from an American. Her factual, history-based perspective helps me to better understand today’s political environment and put it in context. Her top-notch analysis and insights help me to become a more informed and involved citizen. I love this podcast and am extremely grateful to the author for her significant contributions toward the democratic principles we hold dear in the United States. Extremely well done!
