It is always fascinating to read what Europeans think of us, and this highly perceptive collection of short, sharp, candid Italian reactions--primarily from the 1930s, 1950s, and early 1960s--indicates that America's mythic and cultural impact is still considerable. The editors have done a superb job of both rounding up and translating their group of diverse intellectuals.-Booklist
