Boom! Voices of the Sixties: Personal Reflections on the '60s and Today
Boom! Voices of the Sixties: Personal Reflections on the '60s and Today

Intimate retrospectives on transformative 1960s America.

If the 1960s were a roller coaster, "Boom!" is the front seat view. It's ideal if you're curious about how the events of the '60s shaped contemporary America or you're someone who lived through those times and seek a reminiscent journey. Tom Brokaw's personal touch in narration gives it an authentic vibe, like a series of coffee chats with someone who's seen history unfold.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
