<P>The Jazz Age was a tumultuous time for Americans as they attempted to come to terms with “modernity.” This book tells the story of how all Americans—blacks and whites, women and men, workers, employers, consumers, and activists—contended with new cultural attitudes as well as persistent racial, ethnic, and class tensions. The book provides a broad examination of American society during the 1920s. Organized thematically, it covers rural and urban America; the changing nature of gender relationships; race relations; popular culture; the rise of mass spectator sports; and religion. Appropriate for general readers and students of history, the title provides an informed and compelling narrative history and analysis of daily life within the context of broad historical change.</P>
