MEMORIES OF THE PAST

Relive the good old days when when a quart of milk cost nine cents, a loaf of bread was 14 cents and pound of round steak would set you back a mere 42 cents. Of course, when these prices were in effect, the average yearly salary was $1,368 a year. The Kingswood College Library (Texas) has researched and organized a wonderful site called American Cultural History. Click on a decade, and access a generous quantity of information about that period's art, politics, technology, and much more, with links galore. Older folks will appreciate revisiting past years, while younger people will enjoy the lively, accessible lesson in U.S. history.
