"Who'd have thought we could learn so much from the traces that American patriotism has left on the symbolic landscape? A fecund imagination, instinctive recognition of the crucial datum, apparently inexhaustable energy, the temerity to speculate when data run dry--all these attributes of Zelinsky's work come together here to make for a fascinating and thought-provoking book."--John Shelton Reed, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Who'd have thought we could learn so much from the traces that American patriotism has left on the symbolic landscape?

Zelinsky is one of the most intelligent, lively, far-ranging, provocative, and creative writers investigating the American scene over the past generation or so. His book is a fresh and worthy addition to a large but very uneven literature on an intrinsically important but intractable topic.--Donald Meinig, Syracuse University
