- Summary:
-
"From Progressivism and the New Deal right up to the present, Reeves covers all aspects of American history, providing solid coverage of each era without burying readers in needless detail or trivia. This approach allows readers to grasp the major developments and continuities of American history and to come away with a cohesive picture of the whole of the twentieth century. The volume stresses social as well as political history, emphasizing the roles played by all Americans - including immigrants, minorities, women, and working people - and pays special attention to such topics as religion, crime, public health, national prosperity, and the media."--BOOK JACKET.
