The End of American Exceptionalism
A lucid and rewarding synthesis of cultural and western history. -- Richard W. Etulain, author of Writing Western History.

This is an excellent book on a big subject, executed with much skill. -- Western Historical Quarterly. Direct, admirably brief, and crisply written. -- Journal of American History.
