The United States 1898 to 1933, French Book by Y.H. Nouailhat, 1973
About the Item
Les Etats-Unis 1898 - 1933 L'Avenement d'une Puissance Mondiale (The United States 1898 - 1933 - The Advent of a World Power), by Y. H. Nouailhat, 1973.
The United States, which had been isolated until 1898, emerged as a new power on the global stage. Their disinterest in international politics ended with the war they declared against Spain. Henceforth, their strength would affect world politics.
After the great crisis of the Civil War, the industry took off remarkably, and McKinley's election symbolized in some way the industry's victory over agriculture. This boom was sparked by the great captains of industry, like Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Morgan, and fueled by a spirit of risk-taking, a desire for rapid profits, and a thirst for speculation. Trusts and holding companies appear.
The Great War of 1914, in which, after much hesitation, the United States intervened, made them aware of their international mission. Americanism was born at this time. Despite social conflicts, the black problem, and the terrible period of prohibition, in 1926, the United States was at the height of its power. Regrettably, excessive speculation and overproduction resulted in the most significant economic downturn in the history of the United States. It's the end of the new era.
The book is filled with many period photographs and caricatures, some of which may be deemed violent and aggressive but effectively convey the opinion and personality of a bold nation that courageously laid the groundwork for a new and innovative society.
This is a beautiful coffee table art book.
