Loading... The Epic of America (edition 1931)by James Truslow Adams (Author), With Woodcuts (Illustrator)Mr. Adams, apparently, coined the phrase "the American Dream," and his 1931 text is the first place the now hackneyed phrase appears in print as a freighted concept implying security, safety, healthy nuclear families and home-ownership. This claim may be in error, but I have found nothing that contradicts it. |
