Title: Fascinating descripton of USA folkways
Review: This book is very readable and lengthy. I did not want to put it down as it was well written and full of interesting detail of the four seed British colonies. It is a cultural history of the colonies and describes house design, speech, dress, food ways, marriage ways, and many other cultural patterns. I found myself fascinated at how these familiar folkways developed but more fascinated by how they still control our attitudes even today! It is Fischer's thesis that the different ideas of freedom developed in each region had "defects in expression" but together created a stronger expression of liberty. His discussion of liberty is particularly timely today as we are in the process of giving up some of our freedoms in response to terrorist attacks.
