This book was released on 1994-04-17 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Impressively detailed. . . . An authoritative and epic overview."—Publishers Weekly In the convulsive years between 1920 and 941, Americans were first dazzled by unprecedented economic prosperity and then beset by the worst depression in their history. It was the era of Model T's, rising incomes, scientific management, electricity, talking movies, and advertising techniques that sold a seemingly endless stream of goods. But is was also a time of grave social conflict and human suffering. The Crash forced Hoover, and then Roosevelt and the nation, to reexamine old solutions and address pressing questions of recovery and reform, economic growth and social justice. The world beyond America changed also in these years, making the country rethink its relation to events in Europe, Latin America, and Asia. The illusion of superiority slowly died in the 1930s, sustaining a fatal blow in December 1941 at Pearl Harbor.

Book excerpt: In 1932, at the peak of the Great Depression, 13 million Americans were without jobs.

Download or read book The Great Depression written by Robert S. McElvaine and published by Crown. This book was released on 1993-12-06 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the classic studies of the Great Depression, featuring a new introduction by the author with insights into the economic crises of 1929 and today. In the twenty-five years since its publication, critics and scholars have praised historian Robert McElvaine’s sweeping and authoritative history of the Great Depression as one of the best and most readable studies of the era. Combining clear-eyed insight into the machinations of politicians and economists who struggled to revive the battered economy, personal stories from the average people who were hardest hit by an economic crisis beyond their control, and an evocative depiction of the popular culture of the decade, McElvaine paints an epic picture of an America brought to its knees—but also brought together by people’s widely shared plight. In a new introduction, McElvaine draws striking parallels between the roots of the Great Depression and the economic meltdown that followed in the wake of the credit crisis of 2008. He also examines the resurgence of anti-regulation free market ideology, beginning in the Reagan era, and argues that some economists and politicians revised history and ignored the lessons of the Depression era.

Book excerpt: Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt changed America with a government on the side of the people that put Americans back to work and inspired confidence that the nation could overcome the Great Depression. This is the story of their progressive legacy that began when Franklin Roosevelt was Governor of New York as the Great Depression struck and upended life for most Americans. It was during the era of Prohibition, speakeasies, flappers and the new medium of radio in the Roaring Twenties. It was a time when, as Governor, Roosevelt tried new programs that became the New Deal that transformed America. His warm, easily relatable, voice heard on the radio for the first time created a bond of trust with the public that inspired confidence at a time of great fear. The programs, policies and ideals of the Roosevelts have shaped every presidential administration in the eight decades that have followed and their ideals have continued to influence government in Albany and Washington. Their legacy has endured and become valued again during the Great Recession, the global coronavirus pandemic and resulting social and economic crises of the 21st century.
