WEEK 6 QUESTION Commentary on Readings #3: PROSPERITY, CRISIS & WORLD WAR II

Help me study for my History class. I’m stuck and don’t understand.

Write a 400-700 word thesis-driven written commentary (12 pt. font, Times New Roman, double-spaced with footnotes for evidence) via Turnitin on Canvas in response to the following question:

WHAT DO ERNIE PYLE’S REPORTS AND BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION TELL US ABOUT THE EVOLUTION OF THE UNITED STATES IN THE PERIODS COVERING 1920 TO 1939 AND THEN THE LARGER ROLE OF THE UNITED STATES IN WORLD WAR II THROUGH 1945? In other words, define how America’s role in the world changed & how Ernie Pyle’s writings substantiate that change.

In addition to examining Pyle’s actual reports, you should select & use the PDF documents on Prosperity & Crisis 1920-1939 and other World War II 1939-1945 assigned readings from this week to fortify your argument. Again, draw your analysis chiefly from the assigned PDF primary source readings for this week and quote or cite evidence from these documents as your basis for argumentation. You may also cite the professor’s lecture or the recommended American Horizons textbook, but these latter two sources should supplement your overall analysis, not act as a replacement for the assigned weekly PDF readings. Be sure to structure your analysis as a thesis-driven argument. Do not limit your writing to simply describing what the documents say or what occurred historically.
