Icons of America
Edited by Ray B. Browne and Marshall W. Fishwick

Popular Press


In a democracy, Uncle Sam's icons are of, by, and for everyone. Included in this examination of icons are essays by such scholars as Michael T. Marsden, Earl F. Bargainnier, Edith Mayo, Valerie Carnes, David Skaggs, Fred E. H. Schroeder, Ray Browne, and others. The examined range from symbols of people (George Washington, the Beatles) to places (historic sites, schoolhouses) to things (CB radio, the pinball machine).
