Journey down a typical Main Street, sit back and learn about TV's first hit shows, or travel back to the show-room to examine the latest range on offer from Cadillac and other auto-manufacturers. Remembering the 40s is a fascinating and colourful mix of nostalgia, pop culture, and authoritative history that will appeal to a wide range of readers. The book examines every aspect of American life during the decade when the nation achieved superpowerdom.
