The New suburban history

America has become a nation of suburbs. Confronting the popular image of suburbia as simply a refuge for affluent whites, this book rejects the stereotypes of a conformist and conflict-free suburbia. The seemingly calm streets of suburbia were, in fact, battlegrounds over race, class and politics.
