Come take a firsthand journey through the annals of American History: arrive on a slave ship in the new American Colonies, fight in the Revolutionary War alongside General Washington; experience the birth of a Nation and its trials and tribulations through Civil War, World Wars, and battles across the Pacific Ocean in Korea and Vietnam—all its agonizing conflicts spanning over 200 years. Life of the Eagle is a mystical and magical account, following the life of an ageless wanderer and adventurer—he is literally ageless—a man who seemingly cannot die, but must watch generation after generation pass away before his eyes. He struggles to understand his inexplicable longevity, his miraculous gift of healing that saves lives only to see them soon lost in horror and tragedy, and ultimately to discover his mysterious purpose in the world. This view of history is candid and raw, horrifying and shocking, yet heart-rending and inspiring in its candor and honesty. It is a unique perspective seen through the human lives that shaped a nation with blood and perseverance and courage and faith.

It’s the 1940’s and 50’s and it’s still a time of innocence despite recent memories of a “hot” war and the beginning of a “cold” one. The Short Happy Life of Davey Monroe has thirty-four short works or episodes. Each focuses on a different aspect of young Davey’s life as he grows from age five to age twelve. Some of them describe his relationships with his parents, teachers, friends, strangers, “aliens” or enemies. Others examine his budding sexuality, his schooling, his ever-expanding explorations or his developing sense of his own, personal place in the world. Like all of us, he has moments of triumph and moments of tragedy. And like all of us, he learns the great lessons of life—the most important of which we all learned in childhood, too.
