Social and political upheaval in the period 1895-1925

by semidemiurge

A guest on Charlie Rose last night suggested that we are currently experiencing a period of social and political upheaval similar to the period between 1895-1925 in US history. I only have the barest of historical knowledge of that period but will be researching it in greater detail and thought I might start here with suggestions on books to read. I guess I should first ask, does anyone agree with this comparison?

Hi, I've approved your post for this sub, but this last question,

I guess I should first ask, does anyone agree with this comparison?

is off-limits here, per the 20-year rule against discussing current events. That is, it's fine for you to state the context of your question (something on Rose), and it's fine to discuss 100-year old events, but comparisons to current events are not permitted.
