Summary: mixed bag of retro tales
Comment: Comic book-style stories explain the fads, events, people, music, sports, and everything else about one of the more colorful decades in history. Trying to cover pet rocks and Viet Nam in the same book leads to some inevitable unevenness, of course, and the serious topics are often trivialized or over-simplified. But there are already many books on Watergate; buy this book to learn about streaking and disco.

Summary: This book is cool
Comment: I put off taking Amazon up on the recommendation to buy this book (i had bought 4 "big books" in the past) I finally ordered it and received it Friday. I got it just in time because TLC ran a 70s special Sunday and FX has started showing 54. So now I can watch and read about the decade I was born in. I am planning on taping both this week when it airs again so I can have a 70s tape to go along with my book. ( Just wish my old beta vcr still worked lol)

Summary: The '70s Are Back, Man!
Comment: This is the latest volume in Paradox Press' excellent Big Books series. It proves to be another winner! It chronicles the Me Decade, and analyzes how it affects society as we know it in this decade. It covers a lot of the wacky memories, like pet rocks, mood rings, and the fashions, plus some of the not-so-wacky memories, like the gasoline shortage and the Iranian hostage crisis. As someone born in the 1970s, I truly enjoyed this. But you don't have to be a child of the '70s to like it too!
