This is a captivating, myth-busting reference work that uses a century of hard data, including original 1999 research building on the landmark "Middletown" study, to reveal what really happened to everyday Americans, charting shifts in politics, sexual behavior, economics, immigration, religion, longevity, and public opinion for anyone drawn to history, sociology, demography, or public policy.

If you do choose to have your order shipped "Expedited", my shipping cost may seem higher than expected. Some of our books are large format hardcovers that can cost quite a bit when shipped expedited. So I would like to make sure that I can cover the cost upfront. However, if the actual cost of expedited shipping is less than the charge, I will refund the difference!
