The last five years have witnessed a surge in publications on Spanish cinema and Spanish cultural studies; but the subject of consumer culture in Spain has been neglected until now. The Mobile Nation: Espantilde;a cambia de piel (1954ndash;1964) presents the first systematic treatment of this crucial period during Spainrsquo;s transition to modernity and highlights the forces that converged during this dramatic decade to change the face of Spain. Drawing from the methodologies of literature; film studies; cultural studies; feminist theory; and history; The Mobile Nation explores consumer culture in Spanish media; mass tourism; and the national auto industry from 1954 to 1964 and offers valuable insight into postmodern Spainrsquo;s transformation and trends.

Wonderful Pictorial HIstory of Dayton; NVBy Cheerful GrammieWent to a book signing for Laura Fay Tennant and Jack Folmars new book; Images of America in Dayton. Spent the rest of the day reading it from cover to cover. What a WONDERFUL book! Its full of pictures; with great stories to go with them. Reminded me of so many things I had forgotten; and I learned many things I didnt know. The book now has notes written all up and down the margins of its pages! If youre interested in the history of Dayton; NV or the Comstock; this is a must buy book!
