There were transportation and communication networks. There was the network of the globalized marketplace, which brought into the American home exotic goods previously affordable to only a few. There was the network of standard time, which bound together all but the most rural Americans. There was the public health movement, which joined individuals to their fellow citizens by making everyone responsible for the health of everyone else. There were social networks that joined individuals to their fellows at the municipal, state, national, and global levels. Previous histories of this era focus on alienation and dislocation that new technologies caused. This book shows that American individuals in this era were more connected to their fellow citizens than ever?but by bonds that were distinctly modern. 607 $aUnited States$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$xCivilization$y1865-1918 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a973.8 700 $aCassedy$b Steven$01028623 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464420003321 996 $aConnected$92448949 997 $aUNINA
