Surprising and delightfully engrossing, Americanon explores the true history of thirteen of the nation''s most popular books. Overlooked for centuries, our simple dictionaries, spellers, almanacs, and how-to manuals are the unexamined touchstones for American cultures and customs. They sold tens of millions of copies and set out specific archetypes for the ideal American, from the self-made entrepreneur to the humble farmer. This ''distinctive and engaging'' (Library Journal) work is American history as you''ve never encountered it before.
