Author: Josef Opatrný

12,40 €

Railroads, immigration, and rapid changes in everyday life shape this portrait of the United States during Grant's presidency. Josef Opatrný examines post-Civil War society, from high politics to housing and culture. He considers both economic opportunities and the corruption that accompanied the Gilded Age.

This historical monograph will appeal to readers interested in urban and rural life in the 1870s. Period illustrations complement a social history that extends beyond a biography of the president alone.
