America’s summer of 1927 saw the birth of talking pictures, the invention of television, the peak of Al Capone’s reign of terror, the ill-conceived decision that led to the Great Depression, and an impossible amount more. In this book of brawling adventure, reckless optimism and delirious energy, Bryson takes us back to a forgotten summer when America came of age and changed the world forever.
