Content:
Karen M. Dunak provides a nuanced history of the American wedding and its celebrants. Blending an analysis of film, fiction, advertising, and prescriptive literature with personal views from letters, diaries, essays, and oral histories, Dunak demonstrates the ways in which the modern wedding epitomises a diverse and consumerist culture, and reveals an ongoing debate about the power of peer culture, media, and the marketplace in America.
