Overview

The generation that came of age from 1960 to 1980 had front-row seats to the events and personalities that laid the foundation for the Canada we know today. As the generation matured, so too did the country.

Chapters range from TV to sports, music to business, and stage to screen. A section includes the lengths individuals went to be "cool." Another features Canada's attempts to deal with the big brash neighbour-nation to the south.

Equal parts history, pop culture, and trivia, the events and personalities that shaped Canada for years to come are presented with wry humour. Whether you choose this book for entertainment, for nostalgia, for easy-to-read history, or for quirky trivia, you will be reminded of how much change has occurred in Canada over a lifetime.
