Quotes from Preface-
"The United States themselves are essentially the greatest poem...Here is not merely a nation but a teeming nation of nations."
"One sees that it must indeed own the riches of the summer and winter, and need never be bankrupt while corn grows from the ground or the orchards drop apples or the bays contain fish or men beget children upon women."
