We all have probably read a book or two written by an American author. If you know the story of the "Wonderful Wizard of Oz"...American, "Farenheit 451"...American, "Huckleberry Finn"...American. Classics to nouveau, there is a W-I-D-E array to choose from, if you'd like to read American literature. ( Edited by plmiller )
