The Tyranny of Change: America in the Progressive Era, 1890-1920 (The St. Martin's Series in 20th-Century U.S. History) Book

This book describes and analyzes America during the "Progressive Era" - a time that saw the country's transformation into a modern, urban, industrial society. Using an organizing theme of "new interventionism" - the unprecedented willingness of Americans of the time to become actively involved with the economy, society and world affairs - the book examines the economic, social, political and international shifts that resulted from modernization. It covers all major events and historical figures of the period, including detail on all the major legislation and other domestic and foreign governmental actions. The author received the Best Book Award from the Society for Military History for "To Raise an Army: The Draft Comes to Modern America".Read More
