"Some of the most important issues of our time were no less important 100 years ago. America in 1919, at the close of World War I, was shaken from the events of large-scale warfare, fearing a Communist takeover, and facing an incredible amount of social and political change. From Prohibition to women's suffrage, the labor strikes to the violence of the Red Summer and the Red Scare . . . [this book] explores each major movement of 1919 [and] . . . offers a unique historical perspective on the trajectory of the major movements of the twentieth-century. Showing readers how every current event has unique and fascinating history preceding it"--Provided by publisher.
