Quoted By:
All Americans should read this, original and true American culture was much more intimately connected with the land than the currently vogue narrative of our national character being built by hordes of industrial laborers imported like so many head of cattle by 19th century robber barons. The latter theory only gained influence in academia due to the anti-colonialism and grievance sociology of the 1960's, spreading alongside Foucault's AIDS. Sadly it is likely what you've been told is the American story for your entire life, leading you to believe that we are a cultureless amalgamation of the huddled masses of many peoples who came here to build model T's, a tragic mischaracterization of our nation that has disconnected most Americans from their land and frontier heritage.
