The Innocent Years (1960)

  
Format:  The Innocent Years DVD 
 
 
It was perhaps the last "unspoiled" time in 20th-century America, the era between 1900 and the start of the First World War in 1914. This "Project Twenty" program uses interviews, photo and vintage film footage to bring the period to life, from Teddy Roosevelt's presidency to the rise of the automobile, and shows how a growing social undercurrent drove the suffragette and prohibitionist movements. 60 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English.
