Americanon An Unexpected U.S. History in Thirteen Bestselling Books

$20.24

Publisher: Random House

Author: Jess McHugh

Surprising and delightfully engrossing, Americanon explores the true history of thirteen of the nation's most popular books. Overlooked for centuries, our simple dictionaries, spellers, almanacs, and how-to manuals are the unexamined touchstones for American cultures and customs. They sold tens of millions of copies and set out specific archetypes for the ideal American, from the self-made entrepreneur to the humble farmer. This 'distinctive and engaging' (Library Journal) work is American history as you've never encountered it before.
