Bound in the original off-white cloth, stamped in black. From the dust jacket: "Investigating the persistence and place of the formulas of Horatio Alger in American politics and political discourse, THE FICTIONAL REPUBLIC reassesses the Alger story in its Gilded Age context. Carol Nackenoff persuasively argues that Alger was a keen observer of the dislocations and economic pitfalls of the rapidly industrializing nation, and devised a set of symbols that addressed anxieties about power and identity. As classes were increasingly divided by wealth, life chances, residence space, and culture, Alger maintained that Americans could still belong to one estate. The story of the youth who faces threats to his virtue, power, independence, and identity stands as an allegory of the American Republic.". First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover.
