An illuminating history of North America's eleven rival cultural regions that explodes the red state-blue state myth.North America was settled by people with distinct religious, political, and ethnographic characteristics, creating regional cultures that have been at odds with one another ever since. Subsequent immigrants didn't confront or assimilate into an “American” or “Canadian” culture, but rather into one of the eleven distinct regional ones that spread over the continent each staking out mutually exclusive territory.In American Nations, Colin Woodard leads us on a journey through the history of our fractured continent, and the rivalries and alliances between its component nations, which conform to neither state nor international boundaries. He illustrates and explains why “American” values vary sharply from one region to another. Woodard (author of American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good)  reveals how intranational differences have played a pivotal role at every point in the continent's history, from the American Revolution and the Civil War to the tumultuous sixties and the "blue county/red county" maps of recent presidential elections. American Nations is a revolutionary and revelatory take on America's myriad identities and how the conflicts between them have shaped our past and are molding our future.

The first part of the book was fascinating, as it provided information of the ideology, settlement, and customs of each nation. That part was an interesting read. I was leaning toward giving this a 4-star rating until I hit about Chapter 24. At this point, the author loses all objectivity and shows his clear northeastern bias against the south. His generalizations about the south aren’t based on any objective data, but on personal prejudices from his perspective. There are a good number of downright incorrect statements that were derogatory toward the southern part of the country, which were really disappointing.Some of his “historical” conclusions were very inaccurate as well. In chapter 26, he implies that the Nazis adopted their prejudicial attitude toward the black population from the Deep South. The fact of the matter is that Hitler’s philosophy was driven and constructed from Darwin (the idea of the survival of the fittest), and Nietzsche’s ideas of the “superman”, “super race”. Those were the drivers of what begat the Holocaust.Also mentioned were snide comments about evangelical Christianity. The implications in the latter chapters were that evangelicals wanted a “Christian theocracy”, or evangelical “sharia law”. It is obvious that he really doesn’t understand evangelical population at all and would be well served to learn and understand who that segment of the population is.Again, the last part of the book forced me to give this a one-star rating. I’d love to see the author do more objective research and redo that last part of the book.
