The National Geographic Society - in conjunction with the National Trust for Historic Preservation and by the authority of the White House Millennium Council - introduces the official book for the Save America's Treasures preservation program.

Many of America's most important national treasures are in danger of being lost forever because of age, neglect, and lack of funding. Saving America's Treasures is dedicated to turning the tide on this disturbing trend.

Hillary Clinton, the campaign's honorary chair, and award-winning journalist Ray Suarez introduce readers to hundreds of places, artifacts, and documents that have been targeted by the National trust for immediate restoration, including Babe Ruth's scrapbooks, Thomas Edison's Invention Factory, Harriet Tubman's home, and Louis Armstrong's archives.

Featuring 150 archival and newly commissioned photographs as well as five thought-provoking essays by such noted writers as Thomas Mallon, Francine Prose, and Ian Frazier, this book spans every state in the union and powerfully celebrates our nation's diverse cultural heritage.
