The American Turning Point: How Unity, Liberty, and Courage Can Save Our Nation is a call to restore the bonds that strengthen communities, renew civic trust, and build a nation guided by unity, liberty, and everyday courage. In a moment marked by rising division, this book offers a practical and principled path forward—one that begins not in Washington, but in our homes, workplaces, neighborhoods, and circles of influence.
Through grounded insight, clear values, and accessible language, Douglas G. Jackson challenges readers to reclaim responsibility for the direction of the country and to step boldly into their role as stewards of America’s future.
Overview
Overview
The American Turning Point explores how the United States reached its current level of polarization and uncertainty and what ordinary citizens can do to reverse course. Rather than appealing to partisanship, the book calls for a higher standard of civic behavior rooted in shared values and mutual respect.
The book emphasizes five core themes:
The strength of unity without uniformity
Liberty as both an individual right and a collective responsibility
Courage expressed through action, service, and principled leadership
Restoring trust by rebuilding relationships at the local level
The belief that national change begins with community-level commitment
Readers are invited not merely to understand America’s challenges, but to become part of the solution.

Reader Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-Star Review from Amazon
“This book cuts right to the heart of what’s broken in this country. It calls out the division between everyday people and highlights how far we’ve fallen from simply talking to one another. It’s honest, direct, and unflinching in a way most books won’t dare to be.
I can’t recommend it enough, if you care about where we are and where we’re headed, this is absolutely worth your time. ”
