This is a fascinating look at what really makes up class distinctions in American society. It has nothing to do with wealth and everything to do with self-awareness and how one is raised, he effectively argues. It's a real eye-opener. I found myself analyzing what class I belonged too and am convinced that my family is not as middle-class as my mother led us to believe. The only downside to this book is the end. The author argues that there is a new class being formed in America, one made of people who are oblivious to their own class but also don't seem to adhere to the rules of any of them. He points to beatniks, hippies, artists, etc. etc. as part of this new class. While I agreed with him on this, what diminished the book is the author then egotistically claimed he was part of this "new" class and that the "new" class was better than everyone else. So the guy ended up coming off as an elitist snob in the end. Despite that, this book is listed as one of my favorites of all time and I recommend it (actually I pretty much thrust it) on everyone who comes my way.
