Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The time between the wars, the 1920 and 1930s, differed from each other in almost every respect. “The Roaring ’20s” ushered in a period of optimism and frivolity, complete with daring fashions for women that broke from the Victorian standard of dress. With the stock market crash of 1929, the 1930s were markedly more subdued. As the United States struggled through the Great Depression, the somber tones were reflected in people’s everyday wear, though cinematic stars still wore dazzling outfits. The 1920s and 1930s details how men and women dressed during the periods between World War I and World War II, giving ample examples of the style of costumes and fashions popular at the time. Chapters include: New Clothes for a New Age Gentlemen and Gangsters 1920s Casual and Day Wear 1930s Women's Wear 1930s Men's Wear The Golden Age of Glamour 1930s Day Wear, Sportswear, and Children's Wear Accessories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dubbed "The Jazz Age" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the 1920s were characterized as a decade of frenetic fun. In the fashion world, clothes began to lose the last vestiges of the fussy, frilly Edwardian era as they grew more svelte and "simple." This wonderful, in-depth look at the styles of the Jazz Age and the people who wore them covers the first half of the 1920s -- years that served as a prelude to "The Party of the Century," as Fitzgerald called part two of this free-wheeling decade. A combination of vintage images, professional photographs of existing garments, and period artists' illustrations vividly display clothing and accessories for men, women, and children worn from 1920 through 1924. Clothing for all occasions is featured, including evening wear, day wear, the all-important sports fashions, lingerie, and even wedding attire. Fascinating timelines place the fashions in their proper setting, describing each year's film, music, literary, and couture trends. Among the book's many highlights are rare French pochoir fashion plates and photos of authentic signed haute couture gowns by Patou and Fortuny. This informative and visually engaging book will delight fashion and history connoisseurs alike. A companion volume covers fashions from the years 1925 to 1929.

Book excerpt: "Did the Twenties Roar?" is a fascinating adventure through the 1920s and 1930s in America. This is a story of our country and the spirit of the American people. It begins with the end of World War I, the Great War. Americans were tired of picking up the newspapers and experiencing the constant news stories breeding fear. Deaths were overwhelming, not only from the War but from La Grippe, or the Spanish Flu. Doughboys came home wounded, with diseases, and tried to adjust to being civvies once again. Families had to make adjustments and people demanded more. We were tired and needed to move on. The twenties were upon us with prohibition, automobiles, flappers, and a search for fun and a good life. The twenties came and went and before America realized it, we were in a Depression -- a Great one. We struggled and somehow made it into the forties. World War II arrived and the economic depression was over. "Did the Twenties Roar?" is an adventure covering the two decades. It is both a light-hearted and dark story of events, people, and American determination to survive. Could these times happen again? Once you read this book, you will see the similarity with current events. We've witnessed the same issues during our lifetimes: disease, the Flu, political corruption, presidential ups and downs, yellow-press, recession and depression, good times rolling, and periods of prosperity. Look back and give the issues some thought and enjoy the experience reading about the Greatest Country in the World -- the United States of America.
