This book presents three decades of writings by one of America's
most distinguished historians. John Higham, renowned for his
influential works on immigration, ethnicity, political symbolism,
and the writing of history, here traces the changing contours of
American culture since its beginnings, focusing on the ways that an
extraordinarily mobile society has allowed divergent ethnic, class,
and ideological groups to "hang together" as Americans. The book
includes classic essays by Higham and more recent writings, some of
which have been substantially revised for this publication. Topics
range widely from the evolution of American national symbols and
the fate of our national character to new perspectives on the New
Deal, on other major turning points, and on changes in race
relations after major American wars. Yet they are unified by an
underlying theme: that a heterogeneous society and an inclusive
national culture need each other.
