The Progressive Era represented a tumultuous time for Americans as they attempted to come to terms with a rapidly emerging modern, urban, and industrial society, and ultimately the dislocations caused by World War I. Steven L. Piott's Daily Life in the Progressive Era tells the story of how all Americans—black and white, women and men, rural inhabitants and urban residents, workers and employers, consumers and producers—contended with new cultural attitudes, persistent racial and class tensions, and the power struggles of evolving classes.
