Reviews
"Teaford's latest book is appropriate for either an undergraduate or graduate course in urban geography. It is both well written and well researched. He provides ample documentation from secondary sources including government records, newspapers, town hall meeting notes, and statistics from credible sources that illustrate his point and support his argument. This book is an excellent beginning to the process of understanding and explaining the basics of suburban life today, and will provide students with fodder for animated and in-depth class debates." -- JOURNAL OF REGIONAL SCIENCE, VOL. 50, NO. 2, 2010 "Jon C. Teaford's thoughtful overview of American suburban culture explores the evolution of suburbia, acknowledging its diversity, commerce, and governance, as well as the residential and planning issues that often breed conflict within these liminal spaces...Although this volume will appeal to scholars of twentieth-century American life, it is engaging and easily accessible for those simply interested in learning more about the urban sprawl that surrounds us." -- Indiana Magazine of History, June 2010
