In December, 2020, Elizabeth, my wife of 50 years, passed away after struggling for two years with pancreatic cancer and stroke. During this time, the pandemic was raging, and America was struggling to salvage its very identity and survival.A time of deep transformation. What's the way forward?In response to all this, I wrote a book - "Capricorn & Cancer" - to confront the heart of death itself - not only of my wife's passing, but of an America, fractured and dying - and the need here in America for a deep transformation in the way we view our own lives, our relationship with the universe around us, and to life and death itself."Traveling to a New America" was my eleventh book prior to "Capricorn & Cancer" - a collection of 74 articles, poems, blog pieces, historical portraits, and interviews with people I met randomly on the street, all articulating anew the power and greatness of ordinary citizens, and the original, forever dream of America. Now I've combined the two books into one to capture, in greater depth, a way forward out of the dark times we are now experiencing. We are at a deep turning point in history. I once wrote:"A new spiritual civilization, beyond even age-old dreams, beyond anything we have yet imagined, is struggling to be born. It is here and now. It grows from the wreckage of despair, of lost hope, of pollution, greed, injustice, hatred and war. It is the compassionate heart of the universe itself coming to fruition and bloom."You and I are at the heart of this change.Elizabeth and I are traveling together now, reaching out to people all across the country, to spark a great vision and belief in the innate power and potential of every person's life, and in the eternal and still unfulfilled dream of America.

Author, speaker, poet, and filmmaker James Hilgendorf draws upon his own books, poems, blogs, and articles, to create a pastiche of a new America - one that even now, amid all the division, anger, and loss of hope we are experiencing in our country, is struggling to be born.A song of immense new beginnings, of a deep seismic shift in the way we view our own individual identity and potential, and the potential of these fifty States.Past, present, and future - voices calling forth the real dream of America - something deeper even than heretofore imagined.The dream of America is the dream of the universe itself, coming to fruition and bloom. 

Time runs down the Face of the clock, Blurring the actual Moment where we Play our part, Unhampered by seconds Or minutes or hours, Poised upon the Turning point of forever. It is here that we become All that we can dream Or be.

A new global civilization is emerging on this planet, and underlying this new civilization is a new emerging spirituality and religion that will pave the way for the unification of mankind. This new spirituality will utterly transform economics, politics, education and life as we currently know it. This book is a harbinger of this new emerging world.
