But he was also "a unique and indigenous American product," and the settled citizen secretly envied him. Something inside every proper American, says Allsop, reponds to the haunting echo of a train whistle...
...teaching most of the Shaw students had gotten. But we were well aware that simple drill was not going to achieve miracles; we toyed with shock techniques designed to persuade students that classroom thinking could be related to their experience. One of the first essays assigned asked students to answer the question, 'If God had not approved of drinking, why did he make alcohol?" The response varied from enthusiastic to sullen. Some tutees never showed up after the first meeting...
