May your Sunday be joyful

I was looking for something on my blog whe I ran across this illustration and decided it's a great way to start my post for Sunday.  Let's have a day filled with JOY, everybody, whenever you happen to read this!

This Was America ~ by Martin W. Sandler, 1980, social customs, xiv + 274 pages, 8/10

Based on the award-winning television series of the same name, This Was America weaves 250 photographs (chosen from thousands of glass-plate negatives) to make a tapestry of the period roughly from 1890 to 1910, an extraordinary time in the nation's history when industrialization and innovation were completely transforming the way Americans worked, played, and viewed themselves.  I got this from our Crown Center library, but I mostly just looked at the pictures.
