Summary
Flappers, prohibition, jazz, and the Lost Generation ... The Twenties in America examines the iconic personalities and moments of this uproarious decade. Features long overviews and short entries discussing people, books, films, plays, and other important topics representative of that era. The encyclopedia serves as a valuable source of reliable information and keen insights for today's students. Volume 3 contains 10 appendixes that provide additional information about selected aspects of the decade: major films; best-selling U.S. books; popular musicians and top-selling records; winners of major sports events; major U.S. Supreme Court decisions and important legislation; a glossary of new words and slang; a detailed time line; and an annotated general bibliography
