The Fifties in America, Volume I: Abstract Expressionism-Golf

"Surveys the events and people of all of North America during the 1950s, an era which is often portrayed as uneventful--a period of political and cultural conservatism. The decade was in fact a period of political turbulence, mounting world conflict, and cultural change, including the Cold War, McCarthyism, and a trend toward the suppression of civil liberties"--]cProvided by publisher.
