Book Overview

So this is America. They all seem out of their minds (Ringo Starr, 1964). In a collection of some of the most amusing, tragic, and controversial things ever said by and about Americans, the Whitcombs feature a cast of characters from across the American spectrum. A wonderfully entertaining celebration of all that is good--and much that is bad--in American life. Photographs throughout.
