FLASHBACK TO 1922 WHEN THIS BOOK WAS PUBLISHED: When this book was published in 1922, the world was reeling from the Irish Civil War and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, while Howard Carter unearthed Tutankhamun's tomb and T.S. Eliot's "The Waste Land" redefined poetry. Radio was becoming a household staple, Insulin was first used on humans, and New York was buzzing with the Harlem Renaissance and the opening of the Yankee Stadium. This year also marked the Soviet Union's formation and the passing of Alexander Graham Bell, leaving a vastly changed geopolitical and technological landscape. Location: 01-05-01-824
