The book explores the evolution of the term "culture" in the United States during the early twentieth century, illustrating its transition from a specialized anthropological concept to a widely recognized term. Susan Hegeman examines how this shift contributed to the formation of a unique "American culture," characterized by specific patterns, values, and beliefs. By tracing the historical context and societal implications of this change, the author provides insight into the development of cultural identity in America.
