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.

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.

内容説明

The 1960s brought great change to the social and cultural lives of Americans. Many more students went to college and rejected the traditional political, religious, and social values of their parents. Influenced first by the British Invasion of musical groups such as the Beatles, and later the folk music and resulting hippie culture of singers like Bob Dylan, young people fought for women's rights, civil rights, and, in the 1970s, the right to protest the Vietnam War. Americans triumphed when they sent the first men to the moon in 1969.
