Modern Times is a book by Paul Johnson.

There was a large market "Panic" in 1907, and several smaller ones as well. A Monetary History of the United States, Friedman and Schwartz, might be a good source for some of the information you want.

Michelle, I am looking at an historical chart in Siegel's "Stocks for the Long Run." Looks like the bull market in the 1920's started in 1921. Geisst, in "Wall Street, A History" attributes it to increase in productivity, which I think is correct. After WWI, such things as electric lights, automobiles, radios, telephones, became much more common.
