    The pure products of America go crazy—mountain folk from Kentucky or the ribbed north end of Jersey with its isolate lakes and valleys, its deaf-mutes, thieves.
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    History is the present. That’s why every generation writes it anew. But what most people think of as history is its end product, myth.
