Adding to my love of this attraction is the memories associated with it. I grew up making trips to Disney World and we always made time to get there early and listen to the Voices of Liberty. My Dad was especially fond of this attraction because of his great love for history and this country. The final track, Golden Dream, was one of my Dad's favorite songs. It has also become a favorite of mine.
I love how Disney has combined pivotal times in America's history with original dialogue to tell the story of the formation of our nation.
Washington and some of his men at Valley Forge.
The story of a family where the two brothers fight on opposite sides during the civil war. Another great song during this section (Two Brothers).
President Roosevelt at what would become Yosemite National Park.
Men discussing the hardships of the Great Depression.
The great Chief Joseph when he famously said he would fight no more.
Representation of Rosie the Riveter as women increasingly took over jobs previously held by men during WWII.
Benjamin Franklin and Mark Twain help bring the show to a close standing on the torch atop the Statue of Liberty.
