Cocks (SAR Press, School for Advanced Research, Santa Fe, New Mexico), Holloran (history, Worcester State College, Massachusetts), and Lessoff (history, Illinois State U.) offer students, scholars, and interested general readers a reference work covering the period between 1898 and 1917--an era characterized by significant social, political, and industrial change in the U.S., which set the agenda for the rest of the 20th century. The text includes a list of acronyms and abbreviations; a chronology of key events, organized by year; an introductory essay describing the major issues and themes of the period; the dictionary itself, with extensively cross-referenced entries; a list of presidents and their administrations from 1893-1921; the four Constitutional amendments passed during the Progressive Era; and an extensive bibliography--100-plus pages--of further reference works, organized within multiple topical categories.
