Beginning with a discussion of seventeenth-century art along the eastern seaboard and ending with sections on current realistic, process and technological art, Baigell discusses some determining factors in American art, such as the importance of religion, the sense of the "virgin land," progress and the machine, and nativist and European influences. He views the rich and diverse achievements of American art as the result of the efforts and talents of a pluralistic society rather than fitting into a particular mold.
