During the 1953-54 season, with the cooperation of the Speech Department at Northwestern University, Chicago’s WMAQ presented a series of radio essays entitled Americana. The series, hosted by Professor Martin Maloney, was a follow-up to the previous season’s The Meaning of America. Through both series, Maloney considers the question of what makes a nation great, and seeks the answer by looking at its heroes, its villains, life in its small towns, the character and formation of its great cities, the songs that it sings, its institutions and traditions, even the jokes that it remembers and laughs at.
