The Gilded Age

"While learning about government, great leaders, and war is obviously crucial to the study of history, learning about the everyday life of the regular man and woman is just as important in gaining a holistic view of the past. Greenwood excels at looking at history this way. . . . [E]asy to read and informative. . . . [R]ecommended for high-school, undergraduatem and public libraries. Could just as well be placed in the circulating collection as in reference."
