Born in the 60s

Take a stroll down Memory Lane with this wonderful collection of photographs of Britain in the 1960s, a revolutionary decade when the consumer society arrived on every family's doorstep and Swinging London briefly came to be the centre of the world. Over 90 photographs are accompanied by a witty and moving commentary describing a golden decade when the traditional stiff upper lip gave way to the counter-culture and kids no longer wanted to be like Dad and Mum. This was a time of great change when families started holidaying abroad, mods and rockers fought at seaside resorts and television came to be the centre-piece of many homes. Born in the 40s and Born in the 50s, this is guaranteed to produce a golden glow in every reader, and a perfect family gift.
