Covers the music, film, sport, and fashion of the Swinging Sixties. Concentrates on teen culture--sex, drugs and rock’n’roll—and the challenges of growing up in a racially and politically divided country. We examine the sixties’ distinct style and attitude against the violent background of Vietnam, civil rights and technological change.
