A friend of mine is looking for info relating to the change of values from WWI to the Great Depression. I told him I would help, but I can't really find anything for him. The main thing I can find is about the changes in women's rights, importation of different cultures, and a mistrust of war and society.

Anyone have any info on this subject? A good book or internet source? Thanks.

Search for the 1920's or "The Roaring 20's" or "Golden 20's" - that's the time period when social values and ideas changed - Flappers, automobiles, growth of cities and suburbs, divorce rates, etc. etc. You can also find some stuff if you look for Prohibition - speakesies, gangsters, yadda yadda yadda.

I would try www.britannica.com, www.google.com, and www.about.com to find info on that kind of stuff.
