Title: Imagining the Twentieth Century
Description: Imagining the Twentieth Century pairs stirring black-and-white photographs with thoughtful essays that profile the changes of the past century: in politics and technology but also in childhood and old age, in leisure and work, and in the environment and the movies. Evolving out of a collaboration among seventeen historians at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, this book explores ordinary moments, political events, and cultural fashions around the world, often in very personal terms.
