“big”, “new”, “rich”, and
“free”.

- Juxtaposes discussion of history, popular culture, literature and other art forms in ways that foster discussion, questioning, and continued study.
- An appendix lists relevant primary and secondary works, including websites.
- An ideal supplement to primary texts taught in American literature courses.
