Two are histories of the era (//A Very Different Age:Americans of the Progressive Era// by Steven Diner and //Crusader Nation: The United States in Peace and the Great War, 1898-//1920 by David Traxel) and one contains primary sources, //Voices of Freedom: A documentary history//. I will bring them into class tomorrow.-Becky
