America's opinion leader historians on behalf of success

A complex communication mosaic contributed to Americans' impelling motives to be successful. Some particularly credible “bits” of information in that mosaic came at crucial times from several twentieth‐century historians whose “literature of actuality” reinforced our faith in ways of achievement practiced earlier on the frontier and by our founding fathers. As they provided guidance to corroborate what was read and heard in popular culture, those historians are among America's most subtle but influential opinion leaders
