America through Foreign Eyes is written for Americans by a foreigner who has lived, studied, worked and dealt with America for half a century. In these pages, Jorge G. Casta???eda seeks to reflect upon some of the more salient features of the country.

Ultimately, he describes the United States' arduous and successful road to modernity, and the construction of what can justly be called an American civilization.
