Book Synopsis
In unforgettable words and images, Cabell Phillips takes the reader from the crash of the stock market to the crash of bombs in Poland. The journey was a monumental one for Americans-a time of bitterness and despair, of failure and hunger and want, but also of rebirth.

Trade Review
"[Phillips] has a remarkable gift for condensing the events of a period and bringing out the essence of a situation or controversy... [he] neatly summarizes the effect of the social revolution on the arts and popular culture of the time and shows how an isolationist nation was gradually sucked into World War II... I do not hesitate to recommend it..." -Library Journal
