As a Baby Boomer, I wrote this book not just to chronicle the events of the time when we were growing up in the 1950's and 1960's, but to also recognize the attitudes and mores that formed our culture which is the underpinng of who we are today and formed our social DNA . The book is a realistic look back to a simpler time, written in an informative narative with a comedic overtone where applicable. It also serves as a guidebook for the reader to paralell the specific events in their life which many times creates an epiphanny when looking back. It is a healthy exercise to remember from whence we came,not necessarily to dwell in the past, but to stop and reacquaint yourself of your "Roots" ala Alex Haley which will help you reaffirm who "YOU" are today.
