520    "All Roads Lead to the American City provides an original 
       view of urban culture in America seen through its 
       irrevocable ties with the cities and roads. 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.
