SynopsisSpeakeasies, luxury cars, flappers, the CharlestonQthe Roaring Twenties was a singular moment in U.S. history. Readers are invited to experience the last gasp between world wars and before the Great Depression through the decade's best advertisements when the nation's booming economy kept the mood on the up-and-up. 3-8228-2511-5$39.99 / Taschen America LLC, The dawn of American consumerism Prohibition made liquor illegal and all the more fun to drink. Speakeasies, luxury cars, women's liberation, bathtub gin and a booming economy kept the country's mood on the up-and-up. Women sheared off their locks and taped their chests, donning flapper dresses and dancing the Charleston until their legs gave out. Gangsters flourished in big cities and gangster movies flourished in Hollywood. It was the roaring twenties in America: a singular time in history, a lull between two world wars and the last gas before the nation's descent into the Great Depression. Forging the way into the future like a modern streamliner in a sea of antiquity, advertising in the 20s sought to bring avant-garde into the mainstream -- which it did with great success.
