Description
In this fabulously colorful book, author James Thompson uses 325 carefully selected images to tell the fascinating story of America’s signature form of art. The author traces its development from the opening of the American West, through the Gilded Age, through the mobilization and heroism of the First World War, through the Roaring Twenties to the Depression when the bands stopped playing. Thompson shows how American illustrators enticed their countrymen to become consumers and readers.
