"A Furious Hunger is a penetrating exploration of America's way of life, its people, its history, its rhetoric, its government and politics, and its arts and popular culture. The author's 'modest intention' is to try to understand the United States better, not as the leader of the Western world, but as itself." "Bruce Grant writes critically and sympathetically of the country and the people he has visited and observed for over thirty years. His writing uncovers the American way through conversations, visual images, incisive historical analysis and astute personal recollections. This book will interest readers who welcome America's influence on our lives as well as those who resist it."--Jacket.
