Samenvatting
Offers a reassessment of the 'consumer rites' that social critics have decried. This book discusses how holiday celebrations were almost banished by Puritans and religious reformers but went on to be romanticized and reinvented in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It offers a cultural history of the commercialization of American holidays.
