A large part of the book is dedicated to the history of the United States. Let us take a look at some of Vavpotič’s motifs from the American history (from left to right): acceptance of the declaration of independence (July 4th 1776) / Uncle Sam is driving a nail in the barrel of the American constitution (1787) / Abraham Lincoln (abolished slavery, 1865) / struggle for the emancipation of women / a proud American native / a humorous illustration of a New York skyscraper with angels in clouds.
