Radio Voices : American Broadcasting, 1922-1952
by Michele Hilmes |
 | An often evocative study of the sociological impact of the Golden Age of radio. Hilmes notes that the years in which radio was the principal source of American mass entertainment and information have been almost completely forgotten by the public and ignored by academics. She believes that radio had just as much of an impact on the way we live as the frequently studied media of film and television, and her study is an effort to redress this imbalance. $18.02
