Title: Americana and the American Dream
Review: As advertised! The book consists of the pared down life story interviews of hundreds of Americans (two through five pages for most), and highlights both the hopes of younger and the bitterness of the elderly. American Dreams: Lost and Found interviews people from all walks of life and races, including civil rights activists, house wives, Miss America herself (winner in 1970), a Klansman, a coal miner, professors, unionizers, politicians, entrepreneurs, hippies, flappers, heroes, criminals, and even a few famous people like Arnold Schwarzenegger. It manages to accurately convey the intangible concept of 'American Dream,' which before reading this book, I thought would be impossible.Be warned this isn't a book to read in one or even ten sittings; it's like reading hundreds of short stories, each covering a lifetime of experiences.
