The Day Before Yesterday

Marcus Cunliffe

0/5 ( ratings)

All kinds of labels have been attached to the years 1945-60 which this volume examines. "The Affluent Years," "The Age of Anxiety," "The Consensus Era," "The Cold War Era" are among the descriptions. Or we can simply speak of the Truman-and-Eisenhower period, since Harry S. Truman the Democrat was president up to 1953, and was followed for another eight years by Dwight D. Eisenhower the Republican. Or, for commentators on the American character, this is the time when suburban conformity and the bland embrace of the big corporation began to seem the main realities.
