Title: Material culture in America
Description: "You can tell a lot about people by looking at their stuff - the things they make, process, and value. That is the idea that drives the field of material culture, in which scholars explore the meaning of objects of a given society. This book is the first encyclopedia to look at the study of material culture and what it reveals about life in the United States."--Jacket.
