Book The Way We Really Were

    Book Details:
  • Author : Roger W. Lotchin
  • Publisher : University of Illinois Press
  • Release : 2000
  • ISBN : 9780252068195
  • Pages : 262 pages

Download or read book The Way We Really Were written by Roger W. Lotchin and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The customary picture of the World War II era in California has been dominated by accounts of the Japanese American concentration camps, African Americans, and women on the home front. The Way We Really Were substantially enlivens this view, addressing topics that have been neglected or incompletely treated in the past to create a more rounded picture of the wartime situation at home. Exploring the developments brought to fruition by the war and linking them to their roots in earlier decades, contributors address the diversity of the musical scene, which arose from a cross-pollination of styles brought by Okies, blacks, and Mexican migrants. They examine increased political involvement by women, Hollywood's response to the war, and the merging of business and labor interests in the Bay Area Council. They also reveal how wartime dynamics led to substantial environmental damage and lasting economic gains by industry. The Way We Really Were examines significant wartime changes in the circumstances of immigrant groups that have been largely overlooked by historians. Among these are Italian Americans, heavily insular and pro-Fascist before the war and very pro-American and assimilationist after, and Chinese American men, who achieved new legitimacy and entitlement through military service. Also included is a look at cultural negotiation among multiple ethnic groups in the Golden State. A valuable addition to the literature on California history, The War We Really Were provides an entree into new areas of scholarship and a fresh look at familiar ones.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from California: From the Conquest in 1846 to the Second Vigilance Committee in San Francisco; A Study of American Character More elaborate and learned volumes than the present one have recently been devoted in large part to the history of Spanish and Mexican California before 1846. This book is concerned, in the main, only with American California, and with that only during the early and ex citing formative years, from 1846 to 1856. This history of the beginnings of a great American common wealth has seemed to the author sufficient and worthy to occupy the whole of such a volume as the present one, in view both of the interest of the events and of their value as illustrating American life and character. The purpose has been throughout to write from the sources. For the history of the conquest in 1846 official and private documents of original value have been used in so far as was possible, while, as the reader will at once see, the interregnum, the early mining life, and the history of San Francisco affairs have in general been described directly from such early newspapers as I have been able to read, the later testimony of pioneers and the views of subsequent historical writers being used here mainly to check, to complete, or to explain what the early newspapers tell us.
