A full time-lined - pre 1776 to the present day - look at America. A multi-media, full maximal, multi-nodal journey on tracks philosophical, historical, literary, architectural and theological aimed at one question sub-divided into three parts: What is, What Was, What might yet be; America. And all this underpinned by a conspicuous, ever present Catholic analytical lens
