Customer Reviews

Nice selections!

The selections in this book are balanced and present both sides of the issues they present. I think it's a nice antidote to the "I hate America" books. My students really enjoyed the readings and the video. They liked the traditional stuff, like Robert Frost and O. Henry, as well as the more modern stories about Barbie Dolls and World Jazz. They provoke a lot of discussion. There are some mistakes in the book, but that's normal.

An interesting book, but...

I learned many things about American culture. It also helped me expand my vocabulary. But where is the CNN video?
