2008Not Rated38m
Short

On a sunny afternoon, nineteen contributing authors to the book, "State By State," gathered to eat, drink, read, talk - and make a film. "Out of the Book, Volume 3: State by State" looks anew at the nation's autonomous territories through some of its most insightful and engaging voices. "State by State," a brand new collection containing 50 original essays, resurrects a landmark effort from the 1930's when the Federal Writers' Project commissioned America's best authors "to describe America to Americans." What do we talk about when we talk about our states? Are we truly so divided between red and blue?
