Description

The 1940s, encompassing WW II and the postwar years in the US, represented a period of remarkable economic and social change and one rich in popular culture. W. H. Young and N. K. Young, independent scholars with publications in American social history, neatly cover the decade in some 180 alphabetically arranged entries spread over two well-illustrated volumes. Among them are "Advertising," "Atomic Bomb," "Bing Crosby," "Football," "House Un-American Activities Committee," "Radio Programming," "Scrap Drives," "UFOs," and "War Bonds." A "Guide to Related Topics" groups entries by broad area of interest within 23 topics that include "Art," "Fads and Games," "Government," "Individuals," "Literature," "Music," "Social Issues," "Sports," and "World War II." While entries vary in length from one to ten pages depending on importance, many are enhanced by well-designed charts that clearly and compactly present considerable information in a limited space. The "Comedies (Film)" entry presents a chronological 1940-49 listing of representative movies and the films' stars. Entries conclude with cross-references to other entries and a select bibliography. Of particular use is "Timeline for the 1940s," offering a year-by-year summary of major events in the areas covered. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-level undergraduates through graduate students; general readers. General Readers; Lower-division Undergraduates; Upper-division Undergraduates; Graduate Students. Reviewed by D. K. Frasier.
