Description

A fascinating exploration of our evolving national psyche, this compelling work chronicles major traumas in America's recent history- from the Depression and Pearl Harbor; to the assassinations of the Kennedys and Martin Luther King, Jr.; to Ruby Ridge, Waco, and Columbine- and how we respond to them as a nation, and what our responses mean. Reflecting on American popular culture as well as the media, this second edition features a new chapter on September 11th and other acts of terror within the United States, and coverage of the Columbia space shuttle disaster. It also has new, student-friendly features intended to make the book more useful as a classroom supplement, including discussion questions and "Symbolic Events" boxes in each chapter. -- Publisher description
