Short Title: | Emergence Mdrn America |
Description: | An examination of the nation that emerged emotionally exhausted from a civil war to become, by the eve of World War I, a land seemingly destined to achieve a degree of perfection not previously attained by the human community. The interaction of a flourishing industrial establishment, floods of immigrants, rapid urbanization, and smoldering racism combined to transform antebellum America into a complex and relatively sophisticated society during those years. Emphasis will be placed upon an analysis of these forces and the men who tried to control them. |
