Overview
This text comprises contemporary and historical readings, mostly short essays, organized around nine themes relevant to various aspects of the American Dream.

Substantial, unintrusive apparatus includes chapter introductions and suggested topics for writing, selection headnotes, vocabulary lists with definitions, and questions for discussion.Editorials
