The book does sound interesting. Let me know if you come across it, but don't go to any trouble, though. :-) Thanks, J.D. The book does sound interesting.

One key point: Ain't We Got Fun? isn't really about credit and debt. It merely mentions it in passing as part of establishing background for the changes in the 1920s. The book is really about the massive social upheavel that occurred during the decade as a result of peace, a rising middle-class, and advances in technology and mass media. It sounds boring, but it's not. It's a lot of fun. And the book probably *is* hard to come by, though it shouldn't be expensive. (It's not collectible in any way.) I'm making a trip to Powell's tomorrow. If they have a copy, I'll pick it up and mail it to you. Hey, Flexo.
