In the closing decades of the nineteenth century during what has become known as the Gilded Age the population of the United States doubled in the span of a single generation As national wealth expanded two classes rose simultaneously separated by a gulf of experience and circumstance that was unprecedented in American life These disparities sparked passionate and violent debate over questions still being asked in our own times How is wealth best distributed and by what process Does government exist to protect private property or provide balm to the inevitable casualties of a churning industrial system The outcome of these disputes was both uncertain and momentous and marked by a passionate vitriol and level of violence that would shock the conscience of many Americans today
