How the American Dream Grew

Americans wouldn’t need a four leaf clover to be lucky

If the seed of the American Dream was planted during the dark days of the Depression, germinated at the New York Worlds Fair of 1939, it was nurtured and cultivated during the sacrifices and deprivations of WWII.

By Wars end it was ready to be harvested and it would blossom into full bloom in the Post war years and beyond.

This high yielding seed would turn out a bumper crop of dreams, feeding not only Americans but serving as breadbasket to the world.
