America and Americans Steinbeck, John

Description

Back cover:
Unsparingly, though with humor, affection, and his own matchless vein of anecdote, John Steinbeck describes America as he sees it; with its natural wealth, its moral and political shortcomings; with a gallery of American types – heroes, eccentrics, Indians, teen-agers, misguided parents, old people; with the paradoxes of America’s history and the promise of its future. Here, in Steinbeck’s own words, is “a book of opinions, unashamed and individual… inspired by curiosity, impatience, some anger, and a passionate live of America and Americans.”
