The book created an informative entry into the world of proverb scholarship, illustrating that proverbs have always been and continue to be wisdom's international currency. Picking up where Behold the Proverbs of a People left off, this new book brings traditional proverbs into the modern era, analyzing proverbs under four headings: American proverbs, proverbs in politics, proverbs in literature, and proverbs in culture.\n\nWithin these sections, a wide array of proverbs and the topics they express are addressed and shown to still be relevant to the politic.
