"Monumental: In Search of America's National Treasure"--Kirk Cameron documentary

[W. Branstetter]

"Monumental:  In Search of America's National Treasure" is a documentary produced by Kirk Cameron and released in March 2012.  The movie provides some history behind the people who first landed near what would become Plymouth, Massachusetts, and then explains some of the symbolism of the "National Monument to the Forefathers."

This movie would be good to take many school children to see since it provides a good overview of the early history that has been ignored or rewritten in recent years.

It looks like a line of educational materials may be available later as well as the DVD.  Of possible interest with the education is this announcement of a tour, a cruise, or both in September:
