520			_a"There is clearly a hunger to go back to the words that define our nation. To fill that need, the National Archives and Records Administration has compiled a list of 100 milestone documents, drawn primarily from papers in its custody, from Richard Henry Lee's resolution of June 7, 1776, proposing independence for the American colonies, to the Voting Rights Act, signed Aug. 6, 1965." (U.S. NEWS & WORLD REPORT) This article reviews some of the documents, including "laws, court decisions, executive orders, patents--many of the official documents that have shaped us as a people and continue to define our character as Americans."
