"American Life: A Social History"
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0028650158/wendysmall
Social history is often described as the history of everyday
life and the forces that shape it. Social historians place
more emphasis on the effects of an event than on the event
itself. Written by noted historians, "American Life: A
Social History" investigates a variety of topics such as
childhood, housing, manners and etiquette, public
entertainment, and sports. Accessible enough for a casual
reader, but still of great value to a student, "American
Life" is a great resource for those interested in American
history.
