The Progressive Era and the Rise of America. The History of the USA, #14

The Progressive Era and the Rise of American Power explores a transformative period when the United States confronted the challenges of industrialization, political corruption, social inequality, and global ambition. From the Populist demand for reform to the rise of investigative muckrakers, from Theodore Roosevelt's modern presidency to Woodrow Wilson's Progressive reforms, this book examines how Americans struggled to make democracy work in an age of big business, crowded cities, labor conflict, and expanding federal power.
