Book Synopsis Whiteness Visible by : Valerie M. Babb

Book excerpt: Babb (English, Georgetown U.) discusses theories of racial formation, the depiction of white identity in American literature, an instance in Moby Dick where white identity is deconstructed, and early 20th century immigrant autobiography as a guide to exploring some of the cultural agents--world's fairs, settlement houses, public schooling, and etiquette books--that codified representations of an ideal white identity.
