The Little Book of the 1970s is a fast-paced and entertaining account of life in Britain during an extraordinary decade, as we moved from the swinging sixties to the punk-rock seventies. Here are dramas, tragedies, scandals, and characters galore, all packaged in an easily readable "dip-in" format. We can see how major national and international events impacted on the population at home, the progress made by technology, and the fads and fancies of fashion and novelty. We also see how different the world of the 1970s was to the one that we inhabit. Even those who lived through the decade (and are therefore experts on the subject) should find plenty to remind, surprise, amuse, and inform them on these pages.
