This invaluable resource covers all aspects of 1920s political,
artistic, popular, and economic culture in America, supporting the
AP U.S. history curriculum through topical and biographical
entries, primary documents, sample documents-based essay questions,
and period-specific learning objectives. The 1920s, despite
President Harding's "return to normalcy," were a time of both great
cultural and social advancement as well as various forms of
oppression in the United States. Bookended in history by two world
wars, this period saw the rise of tabloid journalism and mass
media; the banning and reinstatement of alcohol; the advent of
voting rights for women and Native Americans; movements such as the
Red Scare, labor strikes, the Harlem Renaissance, and racial
protests; and the global reorganization that occurred as the major
powers fumbled their way through postwar foreign policy and the
League of Nations. Almost no element of U.S. society was untouched.
The New Era of the 1920s: Key Themes and Documents provides high
school students taking the Advanced Placement (AP) U.S. history
course and undergraduates taking a lower level American history
survey course with an invaluable study guide and targeted test
preparation material. Much more than just an AP test-taking study
guide, this new title in ABC-CLIO's Unlocking American History
series is a true reference source for the societal, political, and
economic history of a specific period covered in the AP U.S.
history course. Readers will also benefit from features designed
for student exam preparation, such as a sample documents-based
essay question and period-specific learning objectives that are in
alignment with the 2014 AP U.S. History Curriculum Framework.
