reviewed New World Coming on April 19, 2010 New World Coming
Taking me back to the 1920's, land of "Only Yesterday" by Frederick Allen. In fact, Miller tips his hat at the 1930's masterwork in an attempt to frame the era in a more modern perspective and fill in some of the more obvious prejudices and prat falls. Miller can write and his story telling is excellent. Within most chapters, he is concise with a flair for only the most sizzling of facts. In a few early chapters he succumbed to detail and resorted to name dropping in an headlong attempt to cram in a full era of trivia. I'm sure the impulse is hard to resist. That minor bitch aside, this is a grand effort and a great book. I should read it again with each new decade. it will always be relevant, even 100 years later in 2020.
