The Seventies

When you are busy living an era it is hard to remember the significant influences on the times. This book covers ways of life and cultural influences occurring during the decade. Since it was written around 1990, some editorial comments may seem somewhat out-of-date (e.g., John Travolta's successful career continues; there is very little about Michael Jackson, etc.)Overall, it was a great trip down memory lane for someone like me: 1972 high school grad; 1976 college grad.

that much-maligned decade finally gets proper treatment. hands down, this is THE BEST book outlining all that is worth reviewing about the 70's -- what a rich & colourful time! this book is sharp-witted, insightful, thorough, & fun to read! the spelling & grammatical errors of this first ( & so far, only) edition do not detract from its style & content. keen observations on politics, fashion, tv, film, economics & industry, world news, & more... for those nostalgic for the decade or newbies, there's something for everyone. buy for all your friends.
