"Everything and nothing is sacred in Rebecca Brown's essays. Tongue, word, thought, and intellect all conspire in a free language love of living history, divination, sex, solitude and amusement. She is America's only real rock 'n' roll schoolteacher. Lessons layered with profundity and protracted parallels. Where old world religion, Gertrude Stein and Oreo cookies co-exist in an actual and mystic world of wonder."—Thurston Moore, Sonic Youth "If Rebecca Brown's talent for prose were any tighter, it would be a lyric—to a pop standard. An homage—a menage—to America, exposing what's laid bare in a comic tragic redux. I laughed till it hurt."—Van Dyke Parks, Composer/Arranger "Anyone who can get from the Eucharist, to a Necco Wafer, to the goo beween the Oreo wafers, to the Inquisition, to the goo between the legs of excited young women is a distant sibling of mine. She can dash and she can drift and she is not much interested in the really bad parts that might qualify as confession. She likes the float of quotidian living and I like to read the words upon which she floats."—Dave Hickey, author of Air Guitar The impulse to tell our worst to a bunch of strangers has been fueling American self-hood for 300 years: there's a direct line from the Puritan confession narrative to today's lurid, inescapable exhibitionism. But whose stories are we telling? This collection of mordant, poignant, and playful essays shows Rebecca Brown at the height of her imaginative and intuitive powers. A wry, incisive social and literary critique is couched in a gonzo mix of pop culture, autobiography, fiction, literary history, misremembered movie plots, and fantasy that plays with the notion of what it is to be “American.” Fantastical connections and unlikely meetings span the course of America’s cultural history in a manic remix, featuring appearances by Brian Wilson, Gertrude Stein, Nathaniel Hawthorne, the Invisible Man, the Abligensian Crusade, John Wayne, Felix Mendelssohn, JFK, Shane, and God. Rebecca Brown’s books include The Gifts of the Body, The Last Time I Saw You, The Haunted House, Terrible Girls, and The End of Youth.

Excerpt from The Real America in Romance, Vol. 1 of 13: An Authentic History of America From the Discovery to the Present Day Profusely Illustrated With Portraits of Historical Characters and Views of the Sacred and Memorable Places of Our Native Land Older than any of the sciences is the art of preserving history: long before any method of making permanent records was discovered, history was kept alive by tradition. The father told his sons the story of his life and the story of his ancestors, that the sons might profit by the experiences of past generations. The young people were informed of days gone by, that they might be strengthened for the days to come. Each individual was thus acquainted with the struggles of his tribe or clan, that he might make his thought coextensive with the life of the race. Thus, in the beginning and in all subsequent stages of civilization, a knowledge of history has been recognized as the first step in moral and intellectual development. It alone teaches the earthly reward that awaits courage or cowardice, virtue or vice; it alone teaches the true philosophy of life. Told then by word of mouth, history in the beginning was truth clad in a living personality and acted out anew in each generation. Without that interest, that dramatic appeal, no teller of tales could gain or hold his audience. And for this reason the historians of all ages have sought the charm of the story-teller. One still hears of histories "nearly as entertaining as a novel," of histories "almost as interesting as fiction." But if these statements are true, how can we account for the public's unmistakable preference for the modern story-teller, the novelist? The origin of story-telling remains undiscovered; like music, its beginnings are unknown; both are as old as the race itself.

Vickie has her doubts when her father tells her he has found the perfect husband for her. When they go to the Black's family plantation and she meets Charles she finds him nice but knows he's not the man for her. Then his older brother comes into the room. One look into his smiling eyes and her heart suddenly stops and her knees go weak. Is is possible to fall in love with a man you have just met?

Nick has never believed in love at first sight but when he walks into the house and sees Vickie he begins to doubt those thoughts. He can't be attracted to her, she's just a girl, barely out of the schoolroom. As the months pass and he sees more of her his feelings grow and he knows his first impression was right. But in spite of his feelings he can't ask for her hand. He has other obligations that can't be put aside. Together they face the adversities life in early America during the American Revolution presents them. Challenges to their personal lives come from the battlefield as well as the political arena. Some they face together. Others they must face alone.

Since the 1970s, romance novels have surpassed all other genres in terms of popularity in the United States, accounting for half of all mass market paperbacks sold and driving the digital publishing revolution. Romance Fiction and American Culture brings together scholars from the humanities, social sciences, and publishing to explore American romance fiction from the late eighteenth to the early twenty-first century. Essays on interracial, inspirational, and LGBTQ romance attend to the diversity of the genre, while new areas of inquiry are suggested in contextual and interdisciplinary examinations of romance authorship, readership, and publishing history, of pleasure and respectability in African American romance fiction, and of the dynamic tension between the genre and second wave feminism. As it situates romance fiction among other instances of American love culture, from Civil War diaries to Bob Dylan’s Blood on the Tracks, Romance Fiction and American Culture confirms the complexity and enduring importance of this most contested of genres.

"Malaeska: The Indian Wife of the White Hunter" by Ann S. Stephens is where the term "dime novel" originated. This story offers a unique perspective on the Indians' and settlers' stories that manages to differ from those presented in films and other books. Considered one of the most influential books of the time, it explores the idea of multi-culturalism and how assimilation and acceptance are sometimes easier said than done.
