American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America by Colin Woodard

3.0

I am genuinely confused as to why this book has not been listed among the required OR the recommended reading in any educational setting I have been in so far.

The book is very informative and insightful, and can *sometimes* draw you in with its narrative. For the most part, I am not an avid nonfiction reader, and I would never have picked up this book out of my own volition. As evidenced by how long it took me to finish.

That being said, I appreciate having read as much of it as I did. I wholeheartedly agree with the proposal that the United States is nothing more than a few different nations under one giant trench coat, attempting to buy an adult ticket to the world stage.
