Baseball, Yellowstone National Park, Friday night bowling,
Thanksgiving dinner, cowboys, and the Statue of Liberty are among
America’s shared symbols—its icons. In American Icons, photographer
Steve Gottlieb has selected his list of the nation’s most important
symbols and created a beautiful coffee table book of these powerful
images.
To turn the pages of this book is to catch a glimpse of the symbols
that form the values, history, and culture of America: the 18-wheeler
in Jefferson County, Ohio; a Pecos County, Texas, longhorn; an Amish
buggy in Lancaster, Pa.; the Iwo Jima Memorial in Roslyn, Va.; and a
surfer at sunset at Venice Beach, Calif.
