Every year, as clocks shift an hour forward in spring and an hour back in fall, the tradition of Daylight Saving Time (DST) sparks a mix of enthusiasm and frustration. Some love the extended evening daylight, while others find the adjustment disruptive. But this twice-yearly clock change, deeply rooted in American life, reveals a fascinating history of energy conservation, economic interests, and even wartime urgency. From its origins in the late 19th century to its adoption during both World Wars and its establishment in U.S. law, DST reflects evolving social priorities, economic interests, and changing lifestyles.
