Description: A critical review of "The Image," lambasting both Boorstin's conclusions and scholarship. (April 08, 1962)
Wanted: More Events, More Heroes Wanted: More Events, More Heroes Or What Happened to the American Dream mong the many cliches a prolix generation has added to the American language is "the revolution of rising expectations," a phrase employed typically as part of punditry about "the underdeveloped nations." In "The Image," a storm of a book which alternates lightning flashes and warm drizzle, Daniel Boorstin, Professor of American History at the University of Chicago, argues that the people who have been swindled worst by the chimera of this revolution are the Americans who started it in the first place.
