Description: That Jazz! An Idiosyncratic Social History Of The American Twenties. By Ethan Mordden. Published by G. P. Putnam’s Sons, New York, 1978. Publisher’s tan cloth hardcover with dust jacket. 319 pages. Book measures 8 ¾” x 6”. Irreverent, iconoclastic, McLuhanesque; here is a fresh and original look at the American Twenties. A jumble of information, a bombardment of facts & figures, salesmanship of the burgeoning mass media combined with life at the movie theaters. All this produced jazz, the metaphor of the age, a symbol of a new national ethos, a hungry amoral searching, a simplistic reduction of events or personalities to a single meaning, a totalism of cynical salesmanship.

Pages are generally clean & bright; a few pages display blue highlighting and underlining in pen. Ink-mark on upper edges. No loose or musty pages. Covers are generally clean; four stains from tape.
