Old Age in the New Land is written by W. Andrew Achenbaum and published by JHU Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1421435071 (ISBN 10) and 9781421435077 (ISBN 13).
Originally published in 1978. Drawing on a wide range of sources from social, intellectual, and political history, Old Age in the New Land analyzes the changing fates and fortunes of America's elderly in the course of its history. By providing a historical perspective on society's conceptions of aging—and its effects on human lives—Achenbaum's work offers valuable insights for historians, sociologists, gerontologists, and others interested in the "graying" of America.
