Synopsis
The relatively calm years between 1900 and 1914 represented a time of tranquility and opulence in America, before World War I removed any carefree virtue that was left to be found.

Features President Teddy Roosevelt, the Mexican Revolution, Prohibition and more. (Note: Originally part of Project XX, this film was also distributed separately on 16mm for schools and libraries, qualifying it as a standalone documentary.)
