From 1840 to 1900, midwestern Americans experienced firsthand the profound economic, cultural, and structural changes that transformed the nation from a premodern, agrarian state to one that was urban, industrial, and economically interdependent. Midwestern commercial farmers found themselves at the heart of these changes. Their actions and reactions led to the formation of a distinctive and particularly democratic consumer ethos, which is still being played out today.

ISBN 10: 0313361169 ISBN 13: 9780313361166
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The decade of the 1910s saw the United States rise above strictly European cultural influences as the mixing of race, ethnicity, class, and gender yielded colorful fusions within American society. Historian David Blanke delves into the cornucopia of activities, trends, and events that shaped and enriched the day-to-day lives of Americans in this decade. Twelve scrupulously researched chapters bring to life all of the important aspects of popular culture in 1910s America: from Birth of a Nation to the Black Sox scandal, the Teddy Bear to Tarzan, breakfast cereal to the first brassiere. This lead title in Greenwood's forthcoming American Popular Culture Through History series shows the many facets of American society merging to form the beginnings of the United States' eclectic 20th century culture.This debut volume launches a series designed to be advanced yet accessible, informative yet fun.

This valuable reference resource will introduce students to things, activities, and people that enriched and defined the lives of Americans in the seminal years of 1910 to 1919. These collages of culture will enrich the research of high school or college students and help them see how Americans' lives, aspirations, dreams, even the idea of what it is to be American, have evolved in the pastand will continue to change in the future.

Hell on Wheels (Hardcover)
Language: English
Published by University Press of Kansas, Kansas, 2007
ISBN 10: 0700615156 ISBN 13: 9780700615155
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The emergence of the automobile on the American scene represented many things - excitement, freedom, progress - but also danger, death, and injury. David Blanke tells how the automobile pulled society in two contradictory emotional directions: exhilaration in personal mobility versus anxiety over public safely. By investigating who owned cars, how they drove, and what kinds of accidents occurred, he shows how Americans struggled to resolve this dilemma. Drawing on extensive research into public safety studies, insurance records, and drivers' own stories, ""Hell on Wheels"" is an unprecedented survey of the social, political, and cultural repercussions of auto accidents. Blanke shows how the ""automotive love affair"" emerged as a powerful component of driving and explores the growing tension between the allure of the open road and the risk of auto accidents. Along the way, he considers a host of shared values that defined the automobile age, such as the romantic freedom of driving and the common ownership of the nation's roadways. In exposing the critical choices between collective safety and individual liberty, he recounts how Americans confronted the tensions between enforcing traffic rules and preserving drivers' liberty. In the days before mandatory drivers' education or licensing, people felt they were responsible but not accountable to the law - with the result that, between 1900 and 1940, auto accidents claimed nearly 200,000 more American lives than World War II. Blanke describes how Americans understood and responded to the new and dangerous personal freedoms unleashed by mass automobile use, examines their willingness to accept restrictions on their right to drive, and demonstrates the resulting failure of efforts to significantly reduce accidents. He then tells how fear of accident-prone drivers triggered safety reforms, improved road and car design, bettered driver training, and brought about stricter law enforcement. Since the dawn of the auto, more than 3.2 million Americans have been killed in car accidents, yet we still thrill to the open road and feel constrained by highway speed limits. ""Hell on Wheels"" is a captivating study that shows how this love affair remains a powerful force in our national life. The emergence of the automobile on the American scene represented many things - excitement, freedom, progress - but also danger, death, and injury. This work tells how the automobile pulled society in two contradictory emotional directions: exhilaration in personal mobility versus anxiety over public safely.

A Destiny of Choice? (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, Lanham, MD, 2015
ISBN 10: 1498515088 ISBN 13: 9781498515085
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the twentieth century, Americans thought of the United States as a land of opportunity and equality. To what extent and for whom this was true was, of course, a matter of debate, however especially during the Cold War, many Americans clung to the patriotic conviction that America was the land of the free. At the same time, another national ideal emerged that was far less contentious, that arguably came to subsume the ideals of freedom, opportunity, and equality, and that eventually embodied an unspoken consensus about what constitutes the good society in a postmodern setting. This was the ideal of choice, broadly understood as the proposition that the good society provides individuals with the power to shape the contours of their lives in ways that suit their personal interests, idiosyncrasies, and tastes. By the closing decades of the century, Americans were widely agreed that theirs wasor at least should bethe land of choice.In A Destiny of Choice?, David Blanke and David Steigerwald bring together important scholarship on the tension between two leading interpretations of modern American consumer culture. That modern consumerism reflects the social, cultural, economic, and political changes that accompanied the countrys transition from a local, producer economy dominated by limited choices and restricted credit to a national consumer marketplace based on the individual selection of mass-produced, mass-advertised, and mass-distributed goods. This debate is central to the economic difficulties seen in the United States today. In A Destiny of Choice?, David Blanke and David Steigerwald bring together important scholarship on the tension between two leading interpretations of modern American consumer culture. This debate is central to the economic difficulties seen in the United States today. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
