Description
American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America Colin Woodard's insightful exploration of North America's fractured continent reveals eleven distinct nations, each with its own unique historical roots. This journey through the history of the continent offers a revolutionary take on American identity and how the conflicts between these nations have shaped the past and continue to influence the future. From the Deep South to the Far West, each region continues to uphold its distinguishing ideals and identities, with results that can be seen in the composition of the U.S. Congress or on county-by-county election maps. Woodard's engaging narrative sheds light on the enduring impact of these regional differences on American society and politics. By examining the complex history and cultural heritage of North America's eleven nations, Woodard provides a fresh perspective on the American identity and its ongoing evolution.
