Sommario/riassunto |
|
Canada is usually seen in the United States as cold, worthy, safe and rather dull, and the United States is seen in Canada as a land of unparalleled opportunity and unparalleled failure, a country of heights and abysses. This book argues that Canadians and Americans resemble each other more than either would care to admit. |
