This history offers an intimate look at the jazz age decade in the form of a first person narrative. The author writes of the period as a time of affirmation in the spirit of Whitman and Melville, a time of serious artistic accomplishment. Gorham Munson recounts his involvement in the roaring Twenties literary movement that involved the talents of such writers as John dos Passos, Kenneth Burke, Sherwood Anderson, Hart Crane, T.S. Eliot, Scott Fitzgerald and H.L. Mencken.
