Articulating America : fashioning a national political culture in early America : essays in honor of J.R. Pole
In this collection of essays, seven distinguished historians explain how a national political culture developed in America. A political culture is both the collectivity of a community's values and a mode of behaviour - an end as well as a process of obtaining that end, which is always changing.
