It integrates analysis of the profound economic and social changes taking place during the period between 1877 and the start of the Great Depression. Ten topics--varieties of industrialization, questions of labor, immigration, urbanization, the Westward movement, the environment, transportation, power, politics, and the organization of work--are examined with each subject illustrated by three case studies. The 30 case studies were selected as examples of the underlying principles of industrialization that cumulatively convey a comprehensive understanding of the era."--Publisher description. 650 0 $a Industrialization $x History. $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Industrial revolution $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Social conditions $y 1865-1918. 651 0 $a United States $x Social conditions $y 1918-1932. 651 0 $a United States $x History $y 1865- 941 $a 2 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20240724071211.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826071407.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EBC03F8A6B5411E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
