| Description: |
A collection of essays by John Higham, tracing the changing contours of American culture since its beginnings, focusing on the ways that an extraordinary mobile society has allowed divergent ethnic, class and ideological groups to "hang together" as Americans. |
| Synopsis: |
How has America, with its many ethnic, class, and ideological divisions, allowed divergent groups to "hang together" as Americans? In this book, a distinguished historian explores the ways in which Americans have conceived of a national identity and demonstrates that an appreciation of America's kaleidoscopic diversity can be reconciled with an affirmation of its common national culture. |
