| Description: |
An examination of one of the turning points in American history, 1929 reveals how important figures in the nation and the world - Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Herbert Hoover and many others - redirected the twentieth century in America's last period of enterprise and energy before the Depression. |
| Synopsis: |
More than a mere overview of what may well be the most crucial year in American history, and not at all a nostalgia trifle, 1929 is a dramatic tale of a nation leading the rest of the world into the twentieth century-brilliantly aware of the surge of energy that has made it the leading world power, and yet blind to the destiny that waits in the caverns of Wall Street. |
