Descrizione del libro
World War I is over, World War II is on the horizon, and Americans are coping with the boom years of the 1920s, the surging popularity of radio and the movies, women with the vote, the Depression, and FDR's New Deal. How these events affected the lives of the average citizen is the material of this engrossing book, which visits a ladies' library club in Iowa, a grocery store in Texas, a New Mexico church, a Pennsylvania movie theater, a black night club in Chicago, and other places across the country. Including 53 illuminating period photographs, David E. Kyvig's book brings the era alive again as he explores a tumultuous period in American history.
