"It is an interesting microcosm social history, but I hoped it would reflect much larger American politics and social phenomena. Just read the conclusion if you don't have time -- it's a good summary."
"At 500 pages, Paula Fass could have managed to include non-white non-middle class youth in her enormous and repetitive study. There is also no mention in the title of college students, and this is what she primarily focused on - especially the presence of fraternities and sororities. A much more specific study than I had hoped for..but still interesting, if you've got the time."
"I've used this book more than probably any other in my scholarly career. For the bibliography alone it's worth owning. The analyses are written in a sorta dated style at this point, 30 years after the book's original publication. Still, the trends Fass highlights offer a great paradigm for reading youth fiction of the 20s---and I don't mean just Fitzgerald. It's equally applicable to harder-to-find stuff, from FLAMING YOUTH and THE PLASTIC AGE to period campus novels and even Bodenheim's REPLENISHING JESSICA."
