American Character by Colin Woodard

The struggle between individualism and the good of the community as a whole has been the basis of every major disagreement in America's history, from the debates at the Constitutional Convention to the civil rights movement to the Tea Party. In American Character, Colin Woodard traces these two key strands in American politics through the four centuries of the nation's existence, from the first colonies through the Gilded Age and Great Depression to the present day, and how different regions of the country have successfully or disastrously accommodated them.

Ocean's End: Journeys Across Endangered Waters is written by Colin Woodard, a Maine native. He writes for the Christian Science Monitor and the San Francisco Chronicle on a regular basis.
