“Americomania [is] the fruit of research that is at once capacious and meticulous, each to a rare degree. . . .
Encompassing political philosophy, political and legal history, literature, economic history, print history, visual culture, popular culture, migration, demography, and more, Verhoeven’s book traces how the fact and figure of American land—both as a material commodity and as a utopian ideal—operated at the center of a British debate over political identity ignited by the French Revolution.”
