The 1920s: Flappers, Speakeasies & Coolidge

Historian Jim Gibbons will take you back to the era of the 1920’s, a roaring time, running at a fast pace. The building trade was booming and the stock markets and the economy were skyrocketing. It was spend as much as you can and don’t worry about tomorrow!  Anyone who spoke out or worried about this extraordinarily fast-moving pace was considered to be all wet, a killjoy, or just plain full of baloney! These were fast times, with fast cars, controlling and ruthless gangsters, flowing rotgut booze tied together with fast and lofty expectations. Then suddenly, the boom went bust, markets plunged, the Stock Market crashed. This was the start of The Great Depression! Register.
