David's world is made up of the images that flicker across America's screens, the fantasies that enthrall America's imagination.And then the dream—and the dream-making—become a nightmare. At the height of his success, David sets out to rediscover reality. Camera in hand, he journeys across the country in a mad and moving attempt to capture a sense of his own and his country's past, present, and future.NB: "In preparing this edition for publication, the author has made some cuts in the original text; there is no new material."
