The Modern Temper: American Culture and Society in the 1920s by Lynn DumenilMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I originally saw this book online, but since I didn't have the money right then to purchase it, I decided the next best thing was to go the library (Which was awesome. I'm definitely going more often.)
Compared to the lighthearted Flapper: A Madcap Story of Sex, Style, Celebrity, and the Women Who Made America Modern, I liked that this book gave a more serious side to the Twenties. It also had more than a paragraph dedicated to minorities, so I was very happy for that.
I will definitely buy my own copy of this book when I get a chance. It'll be helpful for research for my series set in the 1920s.
