In his 1931 book The Epic of America, James Truslow Adams coined a term that went on to define the United States for the rest of the world. The "American Dream," as Adams described it, was a vision of a society where life should be better, richer and fuller for all, offering opportunity based on ability and achievement rather than social class or birth.
