What Is America? is a non-fiction book written by Edward Alsworth Ross that explores the concept of American identity. Ross examines the various factors that have contributed to shaping the American character, including geography, history, politics, and culture. He discusses the impact of immigration on American society and the role of religion in shaping American values. Ross also explores the tensions between individualism and collectivism in American culture and the challenges that have arisen from these tensions. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of American identity and offers insights into the country’s past, present, and future. It is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in understanding what makes America unique.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
