The Passing of Normalcy, written by Charles W. Wood, is a book that explores the changes and challenges faced by the United States in the aftermath of World War II. The book delves into the social, political, and economic transformations that took place during this time period, including the rise of consumerism, the emergence of a new middle class, and the impact of technology on American society.Wood argues that these changes marked a shift away from the traditional values and norms of American society, and that this shift had significant consequences for the country's future. He examines the ways in which these changes affected different groups of people, including women, minorities, and the working class.The Passing of Normalcy is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the post-war era in America, and it provides valuable insights into the forces that shaped the country during this pivotal period in its history.1929. The discovery of things which we never knew before has undoubted value, but the discovery of that which we already know is much more exciting. This may seem to be a book about Marion, Ohio, and especially about her chain stores. That will hardly describe it. It is a book about human life in America and what the modern business developments are doing to it. It is a book about the reader and the reader's children and about what makes them get that way. It is a book about his marriage and what is happening to it, and about his wife and what is happening to her; also about his church and his religion and his hope for a life beyond. It is also a book about art and culture and patriotism and sex and sin.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
