Walking blues

the long version

"Who or what is an American? Many scholars have recently argued that in a country of such vast cultural and ethnic diversity as the United States it is not useful or even possible to talk of a single national identity. Are people right to suggest that the very idea of "Americanness" is merely a myth designed to obscure the divisions among us?" "This is the central question addressed by Tim Parrish in this interdisciplinary study."--BOOK JACKET.
