Yet our common experiences and reference points are as recognizably American now as they were then. Our images unite us from sea to sea, and from the past to the present.

Chapters on free time, American classics, sports and entertainment, the great outdoors, the city, everyday living and celebrations offer a panorama of American life both sweeping and minutely detailed. The Fourth of July, getting engaged, Little League, dancing, playing miniature golf, voting, driving, working, listening to music and sunbathing are just a few of the experiences and activities that fill our lives and the pages of this book. .
