Worthwhile, but beware academic & journalist views
It was a very interesting work on the divergent types of cultural communities in the United States of America based on general experiences by county demographics. It is worth the read so as to further understand the people(s) that currently inhabit this land. The amount of data pursued and made sense-of is impressive as well. The book actually reads like a collection of newspaper articles on these subjects for better or worse towards the taste(s) of the reader, but that must come with the territory when the authors are a state university professor and a life-long MSM-ite. The mainstream, contemporary, college educated view(s) abound(s) in this work; hence, the details that come along with the whole book's analysis is usually predictably unimaginative, encouraging, and discouraging in all the likely places. All in all, it's still probably better than the pieces in the publications the authors usually contribute. Behold, this patchwork country...with it's patchwork nation(s).
