Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Here, for the first time in one volume, are Frederick Lewis Allen's two classic studies of America in the early decades of the twentieth century. Only Yesterday and its sequel, Since Yesterday, are a look at the events, the personalities, the politics, and the manners and morals of the nation during a significant and turbulent era in history. Only Yesterday has been called 'the best account of all that happened in the United States during the wonderfully wacky 1920s.' It deals with that delightful decade from the Armistice in November 1918 to the panic and depression of 192930. Here is the story of Woodrow Wilson's defeat, the Harding scandals, the Coolidge prosperity, the revolution in manners and morals, the bull market and its smashup. Allen's lively narrative brings back, revitalized and freshly interpreted, an endless variety of halfforgotten events and fashions, crazes and absurdities. He neglects neither the play of political, social, and economic forces in American life nor those tremendous trifles which immediately concerned ordinary peoplethe significance of short skirts, Eskimo pies, flagpole sitting. Since Yesterday, which is as gracefully written as its predecessor, picks up where the first book ends. Recapping the period of feverish stock market activity that preceded the Crash of 1929, it goes on to look at what happened in the decade that followed, from September 3, 1929, to September 3, 1939. Allen examines the Depression, the election of Franklin D. Roosevelt and the beginning of the New Deal, the Dust Bowl, the way Americans worked (and didn't work), how they played. He covers the fashions of the times, gangsterism, politics, unions, Hollywood, and a great deal more.
