Written for students, teachers and all persons interested in American plays, this book describes the major trends in American drama from its beginnings in the 17th century to the 1990s. Following the cultural history of the nation, the study provides an evaluation of the drama set against movements in the American theatre and its developing dramatic criticism. Chapter introductions, biographical information, plot summaries, selective bibliographies and an extensive index make this an invaluable reference work.
