One Hundred Years Ago the Glorious 1890s Claitor, Diane

Description: One Hundred Years Ago the Glorious 1890s Claitor, Diane From dust jacket flap: We remember it as the 'Gilded Age,' a time when men like J.P. Morgan and Andrew Carnegie wielded enormous power, and their families lived like European royalty. But the last decade of the 18th century was also a period of invention, expansion, and transformation, a time when the world was introduced to moving pictures, basketball, the novels of Arthur Conan Doyle, and the poems of Emily Dickinson: to the music of such diverse composers as Scott Joplin, Giacomo Puccini, and John Philip Sousa; to performers Lillian Russell and Enrico Caruso; and to the Gibson Girl, the automobile, the X-ray, and the Sears, Roebuck catalog. It was an era that saw the last of the Indian Wars, and the largest mass migration in history, with millions o immigrants coming to America in search of opportunity and freedom from oppression. Now, in 100 Years Ago: The Glorious 189s, author Diana Claitor recreates this momentous period through a series of spirited essays that cover both the major events and the minutia of daily life during the last decade of the 19th century.
