The Course to Change

Before America could catch up with the British in terms of a global market, it needed to create a more diversified society. In other words, it needed a more defined class structure. The key to creating this division was education. Those individuals who had already found economic prosperity in America set about finding new ways to improve the quality of life for others. Through their exploration came innovation and eventually the keys to change. As a result, America saw a variety of contributions made during this period in writing, art, medicine, language, and science.
