Item Description

Signed hardcover of Colin Woodard's "American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America."

According to award-winning journalist and historian Colin Woodard, North America is made up of eleven distinct nations, each with its own unique historical roots. In American Nations he takes readers on a journey through the history of our fractured continent, offering a revolutionary and revelatory take on American identity, and how the conflicts between them have shaped our past and continue to mold our future. From the Deep South to the Far West, to Yankeedom to El Norte, Woodard reveals how each region continues to uphold its distinguishing ideals and identities today, with results that can be seen in the composition of the U.S. Congress or on the county-by-county election maps of presidential elections.

A native of Maine, Colin Woodard has reported from more than fifty foreign countries and seven continents, and lived for more than four years in Eastern Europe. He is a longtime foreign correspondent of The Chronicle of Higher Education and The Christian Science Monitor, a contributing editor at Down East magazine, and State and National Affairs Writer at The Portland Press Herald / Maine Sunday Telegram. His work has appeared in dozens of publications.
