Building a Housewife's Paradise: Gender, Politics, and American Grocery Stores in the Twentieth Century
Tracey Deutsch
Supermarkets are a mundane feature in the landscape, but as Tracey Deutsch reveals, they represent a major transformation in the ways that Americans feed themselves. In her examination of the history of food distribution in the United States, Deutsch demonstrates the important roles that gender, business, class, and the state played in the evolution of American grocery stores.
