Profiles -- Historical snapshots -- Economy of the times -- All around us: What we saw, wrote, read & listened to -- Census data.
Section I, Personal Profiles, contains over 25 profiles of individuals and families from the 1990s, beginning with a brief introduction that anchors the text to the year provided. Then, each profile is arranged into three categories, all detailing thorough information about the person profiled: Life at Home, Life at Work, and Life in the Community. -- Section II, Historical Snapshots, includes lists of significant events and milestones for America, from technical advances and political events to new products and popular movies. This section highlights important turning points in American history. Combining serious historical information with fun facts, these snapshots present an easy-to-read overview of what happened in the 1990s. -- Section III, Economy of the Times, looks at a wide range of economic data, including food, clothing, transportation, housing, and other selected prices, with reprints of actual advertisements for products and services of the time. Figures for Annual Income and Selected Prices are included, as well as a Value of a Dollar Index that compares the rate of $1 for every year between 1860 and 2014. -- Section IV, All Around Us--What We Saw, Wrote, Read & Listened To, includes reprints of newspaper and magazine articles, speeches. letters, posters, and others items designed to help the reader focus on what was on the minds of Americans in the 1980s. These printed pieces show how popular opinion was formed, and how American life was affected. -- Section V, Census Data, includes invaluable data to help define the 1990s: state-by-state comparative tables and actual reprints from the Census of Population, including a Census of Housing, Census of Agriculture, and special reports on Marital Status, Education, and Fertility. Various maps, tables, graphs, charts, and narratives are also including in this section helping readers to effectively visualize the environment at that time. |
