United States of Americana Backyard Chickens, Burlesque Beauties, and Handmade Bitters: A Field

A field guide to the new American Roots movement, United States of Americana is a vivid, fascinating, and comprehensive survey of how and why young urban Americans are finding inspiration in the cultural traditions of an earlier time in many areas of contemporary life. Compiled by Seattle-based writer, DJ, and entertainer Kurt B. Reighley, United States of Americana explores this vibrant cultural phenomenon--from the music, to the clothing, to the food and drink, to the rebirth of home canning, straight razors, burlesque, and circuses.
