Description
American Culture An Anthology by Anders Breidlid, Fredrik Chr. Brøgger, Oyvind T. Gulliksen and Torbjorn Sirevag provides an introduction to American civilization through a diverse range of primary sources. Edited by experienced academics in the field, this second edition includes contemporary events and extracts from sources such as political addresses, articles, interviews, oral histories and advertisements. The book brings together texts from 1600 to the present day, offering a comprehensive overview of American culture. It features primary sources that can be used for illustration, analysis and discussion, and links text that stresses themes rather than following a simple chronological survey. With its diverse range of sources and thematic approach, American Culture An Anthology is an ideal resource for those studying or teaching American Studies.
