Ready Reference Treatise: American Dream

About this ebook
Guide books or book notes are primarily written to make students understand the original text better, especially from all those angles which are often overlooked by a casual reader.
But, in the recent years it has been noticed that a very large majority of the students, without reading the original texts, rely on the guide books or notes prepared by their teachers or others. This is definitely not a healthy habit because students do pass their exams with the help of such notes; they miss so many things which haunt them in their later lives.
I would strongly advise all students to read the original text once again even if you have already read it, after reading this short treatise. You will see that the same story, after reading this treatise, will begin to give many new meanings to you.
All the best.

Chapter One: About Edward Albee
Edward Albee was born on 12th of March, 1928, in Washington, D. C. When baby Edward was just two years old he was adopted by Reed and Frances Albee, a millionaire couple.
Having adopted the childe, the Albees decided to name their son after his paternal grandfather; Edward Franklin Albee was an influential Vaudeville producer, the maker of the family fortune as a partner in the Keith Albee Theatre Circuit. In this way, child Edward found himself in a very affluent and educated family.
Edward Albee was brought up by his adoptive parents in Westchester, New York. At the very young age Edward Albee was exposed to theatre. His father and his grandfather were deeply involved in the theatre business, so it was not difficult to understand the intricacies of the theatre business for young Edward. During his childhood he was brought into contact with the famous Vaudeville personalities in America.
