Journey back to the revolutionary 1920s with presenter William Pack: an era characterized by a feeling of novelty and modernity, a break in many traditions and a cultural shift to the modern world.
We think of the 1960s as a revolutionary time, socially and culturally in America. The 1920s was the 60s before the 60s. The spirit of the era was characterized by a feeling of novelty and modernity, something that resulted in a break with many traditions. It may be the dividing point between the Victorian and Modern world. Hear the story of how the culture and everyday life changed radically for our recent ancestors.
