Mention the Roaring Twenties, and all the usual icons come to mind: flappers, prohibition, and jazz. But the humor of the 1920s has been mostly overlooked. In this book you will find a sample of 1920s humor in the form of The Melting Pot, a newspaper column from that era. Carefully restored from many rolls of a slowly deteriorating microfilm, The Melting Pot has been preserved as a small piece of a time long gone in years, but still relevant in its effects upon the thoughts, values and customs of our own modern-day world. Inside this book, in a fascinating blend of history and humor, The Melting Pot will educate and entertain you.
The early 1980s were a time of great change in America. A recent invention, the personal computer, was quickly altering the nature of the workplace and reducing the need for jobs and workers to fill them. The runaway inflation of the 1970s was gradually being reined in, but the good news came at a price. As the government vowed to cut back on spending, companies went out of business at a record rate, the worst since the Great Depression of the 1930s. In this powerful story of love, dancing and courage, learn how the author struggled to hold his world together, even as it collapsed around him.
