How did bonnie and clyde achieve the American dream?

History
1 answer:
tester [92]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Their legend has to be seen in the context of the time.

Explanation:

They were seen by many who were suffering because of the Great Depression and The Dust Bowl as almost a couple of Robin Hood characters.

They liked to make a point of letting local people such as farmers keep their money when robbing banks, and the robbing of banks were seen by many in the areas they were operating, as a blow by ordinary people against the financial institutions which were crippling them.

To what extent this was achieving the American Dream is open to question. They were killers who did not hesitate in killing anyone who threatened their arrest. This is undisputedly the case with Clyde Barrow. There are conflicting arguments as to how much direct involvement Bonnie Parker had in their killing spree.

Certainly the myth of The American dream was reflected in the thousands who turned up at both funerals.

What was The Lambeth<br> Gas-Work's
Radda [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Wood engraving by Gustave Dore (1832-1883) taken from 'London: a Pilgrimage', published by Grant & Co in 1872. Behind the group of exhausted-looking workers in the foreground, others can be seen stoking the fires beneath the gas retorts, sealed vessels where, at high temperatures, the coal was broken down into tar, coke and gas. From the 19th century, manufactured gas was made by the distillation of coal, predominantly for use in lighting. In 1869, the writer Blanchard Jerrold suggested a collaboration with Dore on a comprehensive portrait of London. Entitled 'London: a Pilgrimage', the book contained 180 engravings and although a commercial success, there were criticisms that Dore had concentrated on the poverty of the city.
