Inhaltsangabe

Exploring the concept of region in America, this study calls into question widely held notions about how Americans came to differ from one another, and explains why those differences continue to flourish. The concept of region, and the changes it has undergone, is examined, as is its meaning for Americans today. The authors conclude that regional differences continue to play an important role in Americans' self-image.
