1996 non-fiction book by Les Krantz and Jim McCormick From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Peoplepedia: The Ultimate Reference on the American People is a 1996 book by Les Krantz and Jim McCormick. Covering "Americans and their habits...from serious to silly",[1] it "purports to illuminate 'who we are and how we see ourselves'".[2] It was written in three parts providing "statistical snapshots of American life": "The American Mindset" with popular opinions; "The American Collective" with facts about broad categories such as education or religion; and "Notable Americans" with biographical sketches.[3] A review said it was "entertaining but, in some places, deceptive" and concentrated on men's biographies over women.[4]
