Description
Working Women in America: Split Dreams examines the diversity of women’s work experiences from pre-industrial times to the twentieth century. It highlights that women have worked throughout history, and it seeks to dispel the misconception that women’s work is a recent phenomenon. Indeed, the lives of working women are characterized by “split dreams”: most women who work are constantly juggling their work and family dreams. Working Women in America: Split Dreams intersperses first-person accounts throughout the book and provides a number of vignettes of women employed in a variety of occupations.

Reluctant Crusaders : Power, Culture, And Change In American Grand Strategy

Attribution
Colin Dueck
Publication Details
Book, Princeton University Press, 2006
Links
Description
In Reluctant Crusaders, Colin Dueck examines patterns of change and continuity in American foreign policy strategy by looking at four major turning points: the periods following World War I, World War II, the Cold War, and the 9/11 terrorist attacks. While liberal internationalists argue that the United States should promote an international system characterized by democratic governments and open markets, Dueck contends, these same internationalists tend to define American interests in broad, expansive, and idealistic terms, without always admitting the necessary costs and risks of such a grand vision.

Brides, Inc. : American Weddings And The Business Of Tradition

Attribution
Vicki Howard
Publication Details
Book, University of Pennsylvania Press, 2006

- Table of contents only
Description
It introduced new ring customs and wedding apparel fashions, and “modern” services, such as gift registries that rationalized gift customs, bridal salons that saved time and made wedding planning more efficient, and wedding packages that standardized ceremonies and reception celebrations. During World War II, the traditional white wedding grew even more prevalent as jewelers and bridal gown manufacturers successfully sought exemptions from wartime restrictions, linking the diamond engagement ring, the double-ring ceremony, and the formal white wedding gown with democracy and American prosperity.
