  1. 1. American Nations

    A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America

    The book explores the idea that North America is divided into distinct cultural regions, each with its own historical roots, values, and political tendencies. It argues that these regions, which include areas like Yankeedom, the Deep South, and the Midlands, among others, have shaped the continent's political landscape and continue to influence contemporary issues. By examining the historical development and interactions of these regions, the book provides insight into the persistent cultural and political divisions in the United States and Canada.
