Following in the footsteps of Gale's award-winning American Decades
series, U- X- L(R) American Decades covers 20th-century events and
social history beginning in 1900 and ending in 1999, written
expressly for middle school students. Each decade is covered in one
volume with features including 600 black-and-white photographs and
illustrations; "Words to Know" and "Further Reading" sections; and
a general index. Chapters begin with a chronology of world events
and a general overview of the decade. Chapters include the topics:
Topics in the News, Headline Makers and Further Reading. Within
each topic, alphabetically arranged entries discuss historically
important events, issues, definitions of difficult concepts or
terms, and other interesting trivia and sideline stories. U- X-
L(R) American Decades may be purchased as a set or by individual
volume; a volume-specific general index appears in each volume; and
a separate, free cumulative index comes with the set.
