Transatlantic Politics and Culture Between the World Wars

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Overturning the old American clichàs about "Gay Paree" or the "City of Lights," Becoming Americans in Paris offers a darker and more nuanced portrait of how Americans helped to shape the cultural politics of Paris between the wars, and, at the same time, how Paris helped to shape modern American political culture.
