Life in the Roaring 20s

They also faced rising divorce rates, teen-age rebellion, and an alarming wave of intolerance as epitomized by the popularity of the Ku Klux Klan

This was an interesting book that covered many topics. The illustrations were very useful in keeping track of the topic at hand. It would be a good resource to use in teaching middle-grade students about the 1920s
