Goodson's social and cultural history looks at the public amusements available to Atlantans on the eve of the Great Depresssion, including theater, vaudeville, dime museums, movies, radio, and classical, blues, and country music. He finds that race and evangelical Christianity heavily influenced the ways in which Atlantans went about their fun.
