Huff (Drake U.) presents a detailed assessment of American popular culture during the Revolutionary period. Twelve narrative essays cover such areas of popular culture as advertising, fashion, food, literature, music, travel, and the performing arts. The world of children and youth of the period is also described. The volume concludes with a listing of the cost of basic products (animals, food, land, tuition, etc.) during the Revolutionary War Era. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
