Abstract
Provides a historical overview of the work of Norman Rockwell at the Saturday Evening Post. This chapter traces the ideological and cultural emphasis that the Post placed on so-called American values, generally as a means of furthering a monocultural vision of a middle-class, Protestant, white America that was free from the contradictions of the very real and messy national events at the time.
