From William Morris to Bauhaus to Midcentury Modern -- Robin Schuldenfrei
Robin Schuldenfrei rejoins me to talk more Bauhaus! In this episode, we discuss her book Luxury and Modernism, covering the complexities of the Bauhaus, which had a leftwing ethos but produced luxury objects, and made them by hand to appear machine made. Robin talks us through how the contradiction between luxury and egalitarianism ran from Morris's arts and crafts movement to the Bauhaus, and modernism only became a truly "everyday" part of life during the colossal expansion of middle-class wealth in the midcentury, as celebrated by Life magazine and recreated in the show Mad Men

Tracey shows how Julia Child reframed laborious, elaborate cooking as a middle- and even upper-class activity. Rather than inward-focused family dinners overseen by thoughtful wives and mothers, these meals were outward facing—ways to welcome other couples, and new ideas, into one’s home. For Child and growing numbers of home chefs, cooking came to be under...

Behind the Book
Steven P. Gietschier, "Baseball: The Turbulent Midcentury Years" (U Nebraska Press, 2023)
Baseball: The Turbulent Midcentury Years (University of Nebraska Press, 2023) explores the history of organized baseball during the middle of the twentieth century, examining the sport on and off the field and contextualizing its development as both sport and business within the broader contours of American history.

"Baseball: The Turbulent Midcentury Years" by Steven Gietschier
There are a lot of baseball books out there but few delve into the kind of detail that Steve Gietschier (rhymes with "itchier") delivers in "Baseball: The Turbulent Midcentury Years."His book covers the sport from the depths of the Great Depression to the uncertainties of World War II right through the 1950s. Gietschier draws his title from the quote, "I prefer turbulent progress rather than quiet stagnation," uttered by Brooklyn Dodger executive Branch Rickey, the man who integrated the major leagues by inserting Jackie Robinson into the Dodger lineup in 1946.While Robinson broke the color barrier...
