The Fifties

Rancho Bernardo, CA


This is a must read for anyone in the United States who “grew up” in the 1950’s (or before). David Halbetam’s fascinating look into “The Fifties” is well written and he provokes one’s assumptions about the so-called silent generation. I highly recommend it!

Looking at the number of pages, Mr. Halberstam must have covered every day of the entire decade.
