Summary
"In America, perhaps more than in any other western society, reality, legend and myth overlap. Americans have always been proprietorial about their country and its presentation. The international authors of the twenty-four brief, original essays within this book open a range of windows on our study of the USA. Together they offer a unique analysis of the way in which we perceive and interpret a country which has become the only truly global force in politics and culture."--Jacket
