This 8th edition of 'The Norton Anthology of American Literature' presents complete major works, balancing classic and newly emergent works.

This is vol. D: 1914-1945, of 'The Norton Anthology of American Literature' 8th edition. The two world wars (World War I, 1914-1918, and World War II, 1939-1945) bracket a period during which the United States became a fully modern nation. Both wars mobilized the country's industries and technologies, spurred their development, and uprooted citizens. The literature of this period is a reflection of that

The eighth edition features a diverse and balanced variety of works and thorough but judicious editorial apparatus throughout. The new edition also includes more complete works, much-requested new authors, 170 in-text images, new and re-thought contextual clusters, and other tools that help instructors teach the course they want to teach.

Presents hundreds of stories, novels, poems, memoirs, and other writings by important authors throughout American history; and covers early stories from indigenous peoples through writing from 1820
