From the Back Cover

This reader/rhetoric emphasizes the argumentative strategies readers need to analyze and write arguments. At the same time, it helps readers see that Americans have always defined themselves and maintained a sense of unity—despite great diversity—through ongoing public debate about what America means. Selections reflect colonial times to the present, and include posters, photographs advertisements, and court cases in addition to essays, poems, and stories.
