Walter Fuller Taylor

Opis

Much has been written about America's Gilded Age - that turbulent period from 1870 to 1900 when the great fortunes were built and monopolies founded. Taylor reexamines the period through the work of its novelists - Mark Twain, Edward Bellamy, Frank Norris, and a host of lesser figures. This book sharply questions many of our present ideas about the time. Originally published in 1942.
