SUMMARY:1926 Time Capsule - America 100 Years Ago
DESCRIPTION:What was happening in America exactly 100 years ago? \nIn this annual installment of the popular Time Capsule series\, historian Barry Bradford transports audiences back to 1926— the roaring heart of the Jazz Age. \nIt was a year of glamour and growth — but also of breakthroughs and storms. \nIn 1926: \n• Robert Goddard launched the world’s first liquid-fueled rocket\, quietly opening the door to the Space Age.• Gertrude Ederle became the first woman to swim the English Channel\, stunning the world and returning home to a ticker-tape parade.• The devastating Great Miami Hurricane exposed the fragility of Florida’s booming real estate market.• Henry Ford helped reshape American labor by instituting the 40-hour work week. \nMeanwhile: \n• Queen Elizabeth II\, Marilyn Monroe\, and Dick Van Dyke were born. \n\n\n\n\n• America lost Harry Houdini\, Annie Oakley\, and Robert Todd Lincoln.• George Gershwin was composing music that would define American sound.• The Chicago American Giants of the Negro Leagues won a dramatic World Series championship. \nThrough news headlines\, sports\, music\, film\, and cultural milestones\, this richly illustrated multimedia program brings 1926 to life — and places it in context. \nWhat did Americans believe about their future? How much did consumer items cost? What signs of change were already there? \nStep inside the Time Capsule and experience 1926 as if you were there. \nCOST\nThe program is available for a minimum contribution of $5.00\, which helps support my work and allows me to continue offering engaging content. \nPAYMENT OPTIONS \nCash/Check\nPayable to: Barry Bradford\nMail to:\nBarry Bradford\nP.O.
