This lot offers a set of two hardcover volumes from the Time-Life Books series "This Fabulous Century," comprising "1870-1900: Prelude" and "1900-1910: Volume I." Published in 1970 and reprinted in 1975, these volumes provide a richly illustrated and thoroughly researched chronicle of American life at the turn of the twentieth century. The set is bound in decorative purple and patterned cloth covers with black spines and gold lettering. Each book captures pivotal moments, cultural shifts, and significant events of its era through period photographs, advertisements, detailed statistical data, and engaging narrative.
Both volumes offer a vivid snapshot of American society, industry, and daily life, making them a collector's item and an excellent resource for social historians. See photos for Measurements if Measurements were taken.
