"The Man Without a Country" by Edward Everett Hale is a moving story imagined in the late 1800s, during a time of conflict in America. It's about big ideas like loving your country, feeling sorry for mistakes, and understanding who you are. The main character, Lieutenant Philip Nolan, makes a terrible mistake by saying he doesn't care about the United States. As a result, he's forced to spend his life away from his home, never able to hear about it. Through this punishment, Nolan realizes how much his country means to him. He struggles with being cut off from his nation and longs for a place he can't return to. The story shows how important it is to be loyal to your country and the deep pain of losing your connection to it.
