内容説明
While newspapers, radio, television, and later the Internet reported astounding national and world events such as World War I and II, the moon landing, and the fall of communism in Eastern Europe, daily life continued apace for most Americans. How did the century's various discoveries, inventions, and events affect everyday Americans? Greenwood's five-volume Life & Times in 20th-Century America traces in detail the ups and downs of this political and social history, helping students to see how historical events impacted citizens' daily lives. Each volume includes chapters on the following topics:
America during the period (overview and chronology)
Family Life
Social and Political Attitudes
Education
The Economy
Work
Religion
Health, Science and Technology
Leisure, Sports, and Entertainment
Fashions and Fads.
Readers can trace each topic from the beginning of the century to its end, and can compare and contrast how various people and events influenced the topic over time.

内容説明
Emerging from the Gilded Age, Americans greeted a new century in the midst of the Industrial Revolution. Factory working conditions were hazardous, but earnings provided families with income for necessities, as well as new luxuries such as automobiles or tickets to baseball games. Fashions for men and women grew less restrictive, and women struggled for the right to vote. Many modern medicines had not yet been developed, and families struggled to nurse loved ones through the flu epidemic of 1918/19.
