Who better to lead an online tour of America than Edward J. Renehan? He's a respected historian, Internet guru, and even a much-traveled musician. You might expect such a person to give a very personal view of this country, and you'd be right. Each of the 21 chapters begins with a mini-essay--entertaining and information-rich, despite their brevity--offering Renehan's personal insights into some topic's place in the American experience. The great thing is that the tour he provides leaves much room for every reader's take on American culture. Renehan serves up his selection of the best American Web sites with an eye on diversity. Here are sites showing both the range of American foods and the many ways we see our criminals and our legal system. There are sites devoted to all aspects of the American religious experience, historic events and sites, celebrations and extravaganzas, travel, natural wonders, politics and much more. What you'll get out of this book, besides a huge collection of wonderful web sites, is an enhanced appreciation for America's greatness--not just greatness in the sense of exalted, but in the sense of the expansiveness of its people, places, and subcultures.
