Have a Nice Day: How I Stopped Sneering and Learned to Love America

Description

This title is about the real America: a nation more misunderstood than any other on Earth. It is a counter-blast to the lazy anti-Americanism that infects European thinking, an effort to answer the simple question, 'why is America so successful?'.
