Examining the history, cinema, literature, cultural myths and social geography of the United States, the book puts some of the greatest as well as the "baddest" American cities under the microscope. Taking the role of the roads that crisscross and connect the cities as their shared point of reference, these essays explore ways to understand the people who live, commute, work, create, govern, commit crime and conduct business in them."--Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 20th century|2fast 648 7 1900 - 1999|2fast 650 0 City and town life|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008100738 650 0 Cities and towns|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85026130|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n78095330-781 650 0 Civilization|xAmerican influences.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh89001980 650 0 Globalization|xSocial aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008115204 650 0 American literature|y20th century|xHistory and criticism. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2007101049 650 0 Cities and towns in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85026188 650 0 Roads in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85114574 650 7 City and town life.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 862081 650 7 Cities and towns.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 861748 650 7 Civilization|xAmerican influences.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/862901 650 7 Globalization|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/943547 650 7 American literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 807113 650 7 Cities and towns in literature.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/861865 650 7 Roads in literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1098853 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 0 Electronic books|xCriticism, interpretation, etc. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books|xCriticism, interpretation, etc. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 700 1 Swirski, Peter,|d1966-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n97057156 773 0 |tHKU Press digital editions. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tAll roads lead to the American city. |dHong Kong : Hong Kong University Press, ©2007 |z9789622098626|w(DLC) 2009352060|w(OCoLC)123114895 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=359490|zOnline eBook.
