Sides pays specific attention to subcultures that would fall under the topic of "Americana".[4] Reviews{{expand section|date=July 2015}}Westword gave a favorable opinion of Americana, writing "Engendered by a crack facility for vivid, pictorial prose, [Sides] invites readers into each story with him."[5] The San Francisco Chronicle was also favorable, stating "Much of the collection's charm rests in its gallivanting, "road trip" narrative form, with stops across the map, as Sides gathers the odd-fitting pieces that, once assembled, best define "Americana.""[6]References1. ^{{cite news|title=SIDE VIEW; Santa Fe author Hampton Sides sees America from a different angle|url=http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P3-661223811.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924204700/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P3-661223811.html|dead-url=yes|archive-date=September 24, 2015|accessdate=29 August 2015|publisher=Santa Fe Reporter (subscription required)|date=April 28, 2004}} 2. ^{{cite web|url= http://business.highbeam.com/2872/article-1G1-116188814/author-reworks-essays-americana|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150722103106/http://business.highbeam.com/2872/article-1G1-116188814/author-reworks-essays-americana|dead-url= yes|archive-date= July 22, 2015| title= 'Author reworks essays for 'Americana; Albuquerque Journal| work= Albuquerque Journal; Steinberg, David| date= May 2, 2004| accessdate= July 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Book Discussion on Americana|url=http://www.c-span.org/video/?182412-1/book-discussion-americana|publisher=C-Span|accessdate=29 August 2015}} 4. ^{{cite book|last1=Petrusich|first1=Amanda|title=It Still Moves|date=2008|publisher=MacMillan|isbn=9781429957557|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tgWco-s-Zp4C&pg=PT193&lpg=PT193&dq=%22Americana%22+Hampton+Sides&source=bl&ots=kjNAOEze8x&sig=WF6g_ui88dLiAC5cuUYl39gBM5o&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CCsQ6AEwAjgUahUKEwiJ7saL-s3HAhUKhg0KHeU-BNI#v=onepage&q=%22Americana%22%20Hampton%20Sides&f=false|accessdate=29 August 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web| url= http://www.westword.com/calendar/land-of-the-free-spirits-5079382| title= 'Land of the Free Spirits'; Westword| work= Westword; Bowers, Karen; Froyd, Susan; Ironton, Kity| date= May 13, 2004| accessdate= July 2015}} 6. ^{{cite web| url= http://www.sfgate.com/books/article/REVIEWS-IN-BRIEF-Americana-2788258.php| title= 'Americana: Dispatches from the New Frontier'; San Francisco Chronicle (SFGate.com)| work= San Francisco Chronicle; SFGate.com; Goity, Roland| date= April 24, 2004| accessdate= July 2015}} 2 : 2004 non-fiction books|American travel books |
