If you want to discover the captivating history of the Gilded Age, then keep reading...From a modern perspective, it may seem that the United States was a major powerhouse since its early days. Its present-day economic, military, and cultural strength gives out an aura of everlasting magnificence, possibly even that it was God-given. That's how some may see it, at least. However, the truth is far from it. The American story started hundreds of years ago when it was a lowly European colony, far from the grandeur and magnificence the world associates with it today. Generations worked hard to gradually transform the humble, dependent colonies into bustling independent states, which were united under a single flag.This transformation from a weak and relatively poor dominion into a world-class international power was undoubtedly a long process, yet it achieved its peak in the late 19th century. At that time, the US managed to achieve change in many aspects, from economic and social to political and military. This period of growth has become known as the Gilded Age.In The Gilded Age: A Captivating Guide to an Era in American History That Overlaps the Reconstruction Era and Coincides with Parts of the Victorian Era in Britain along with the Belle poque in France, you will discover topics such as<ul><li>Building the Foundation</li><li>From Chaos to the Gilded Age</li><li>Economic Boom and Bust</li><li>Ups and Downs of Politics and the Government</li><li>Turbulent Winds of Change in the US</li><li>The Transformation of Life</li><li>And much, much more </li></ul>So if you want to learn more about the Gilded Age, scroll up and click the "add to cart" button
