Boom!: Talking About the Sixties: What Happened, How It Shaped Today, Lessons for Tomorrow
Brokaw'sThe Greatest Generationexamined an era that brought America together, whileBoom!considers some of the most divisive years in American history. Inviting listeners to a virtual reunion of characters from the 1960s (which he loosely defines as the years between 1963 and 1972), this compendium of interviews and anecdotes is loosely held together by Brokaw's own biographical time line and opinions. His warm, familiar voice is still filled with genuine curiosity, which listeners will find hard to resist. On audio, Brokaw's diction becomes a little rough around the edges, occasionally letting words run together. Brokaw, who has been a guest in our living rooms for as long as many people can remember, is still welcome to report on the world as he sees it.Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
