          Discovering America Series

          Edited by Mark Crispin Miller

          Even now, more than two hundred years since its founding, America remains a largely undiscovered country with much of its story yet to be told. Books in this series bring to light episodes in the nation’s history that have never been explored, offer fresh takes on events and people we thought we knew well, and draw unexpected connections that deepen our understanding of American culture. Note: This series is no longer accepting new submissions. Proposals for projects in this field, however, can be sent directly to American studies acquisitions editor Kerry Webb at kwebb@utpress.utexas.edu.
