Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
I always liked to put my thoughts on paper in rhymes All of the
thoughts I had hidden in the back of my mind I like to write easy
to understand poems with no punctuation If one of my poems helps
someone through a bad situation Or makes someone smile from reading
one of my poems Or helps one person make a good choice because of a
poem I enjoy writing true short story poems of family and friends I
love to write stories that are real life, and also some that I make
up just for fun. I hope that some people will get some fun reading
them and also stop and think about maybe helping someone you know
who may need help.
As a meeting point for world cultures, the USA is characterized by its breadth and diversity. Acknowledging that diversity is the fundamental feature of American culture, this volume is organized around a keen awareness of race, gender, class and space and with over 1,200 alphabetically-arranged entries - spanning 'the American century' from the end of World War II to the present day - the Encyclopedia provides a one-stop source for insightful and stimulating coverage of all aspects of that culture. Entries range from short definitions to longer overview essays and with full cross-referencing, extensive indexing, and a thematic contents list, this volume provides an essential cultural context for both teachers and students of American studies, as well as providing fascinating insights into American culture for the general reader. The suggestions for further reading, which follows most entries, are also invaluable guides to more specialized sources.
