Photographs carry the 1970s in this pictorial history from the Parragon editorial team, with archive images set against short accounts of the events they record. Politics, sport, science, fashion and music all appear.
The decade is worked through in themed and chronological groupings, so the Watergate affair, the arrival of punk and the period's scientific milestones sit alongside the everyday texture of clothing, television and street life. Captions and linking text supply the background a reader needs without turning the book into a textbook, and the picture selection does most of the explaining.
Notable points:
• Hundreds of archival photographs covering the 1970s
• Coverage across politics, entertainment, sport, fashion and society
• Short written context accompanying each section of images
• Produced by the Parragon editorial team as an illustrated reference
Of interest to history readers, nostalgia buyers and anyone researching twentieth-century popular culture, offered by Boipoka.
