This book provides a thorough survey of American political, social and economic history during the interwar years. Topics include the economic boom years and their impact on rich and poor, the social history of the Roaring Twenties including the role of women and prohibition, the Wall Street Crash and the Depression, Roosevelt and the New Deal and the buildup to World War Two. The book, which is enquiry-based, is structured around key investigations, background briefings and reviews of the topics covered. Using a wide range of sources and vivid pictorial evidence that help bring the era to life, the author has produced a text that will be both manageable in extent and motivating to a wide range of students.
