The Passing of Normalcy is a book written by Charles W. Wood that explores the changes in American society during the 20th century. The book examines the shift from traditional values and social norms to a more modern and progressive way of life. Wood argues that this transition was marked by a loss of innocence and a sense of normalcy, as well as the emergence of new cultural and political movements. Through a series of essays, the author analyzes various aspects of American life, including politics, religion, education, and popular culture. The book provides a thought-provoking and insightful look at the forces that have shaped American society over the past century, and offers a compelling perspective on the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.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.
