Assouline America: The Imagination of a Nation Book
Details
The Assouline America: The Imagination of a Nation Book marks the country's 250th anniversary with a volume built around invention rather than chronology. Skyscrapers and open highway, Hollywood and the Old West, Marilyn Monroe and James Dean, Michael Jordan and the Williams sisters — the pages move with the same restlessness they're describing.
This is a cultural road trip, not a history text. Joel Stein, a Time staff writer and columnist for two decades and the author of Man Made and In Defense of Elitism, provides an introduction with real wit and real authority behind it. 200 pages and 150 illustrations in a linen hardcover, made for the dreamers and the collectors alike.
