Mything in Action

Exploring the complexities of American identity, this book examines how national myths have shaped the nation's purpose and values, particularly during the tumultuous 2004 presidential campaign. It critiques the misleading narratives that have led to failures in foreign policy and environmental stewardship, while highlighting iconic American locations like Lexington, Hollywood, and Las Vegas. By delving into the interplay of history, culture, and politics, this work provides a nuanced analysis of America's challenges beyond typical partisan debates.
