It is also called the<em> dramatic present</em>, <em>historic present,</em> and <em>narrative present</em>.  As you can see, in the sentence above the event referred to took place between the 1920s and 1930s, yet the verb is in the present tense.

The relative pronoun "that" is used with an essential clause and the relative pronoun "which" is used with a nonessential clause
miskamm [114]

Short answer: "That" is used to introduce essential clauses or information, while the pronoun "which" is used to add non-essential or non-defining clauses. Also, these non-essential clauses are set off with commas.

Explanation:

First of all, the words "that" and "which" are both relative pronouns; this means, both introduce clauses that describe a noun previously mentioned. However, the pronoun "that" should be used only to introduce essential or defining clauses (information that cannot be omitted); for example "She is the woman that I love". On the other hand, the word "which" introduces information that is not essential or non-defining clauses; for example "The house, which is located near the sea, is stunning". Moreover, clauses introduced by which are set off in commas to show they are not essential.
