Hardback. Condición: Good. A sweeping and path-breaking history of the post-World War I decades, during which an activist federal government guided the country toward the first real flowering of the American Dream.In>The Gifted Generation, historian David Goldfield examines the generation immediately after World War I and argues that the federal government was instrumental in the great economic, social, and environmental progress of the era. Following the sacrifices of the Greatest Generation, the returning vets and their children took the unprecedented economic growth and federal activism to new heights. This generation was led by presidents who believed in the commonwealth ideal: the belief that federal legislation, by encouraging individual opportunity, would result in the betterment of the entire nation. In the years after the war, these presidents created an outpouring of federal legislation that changed how and where people lived, their access to higher education, and their stewardship of the environment. They also spearheaded historic efforts to level the playing field for minorities, women and immigrants.
