- Summary
- "From the archive of Look comes a photographic portrayal of the dynamic era that sparked a transformation in America's political and cultural identity. From the Red Scare incited by Joseph McCarthy to the election of John F. Kennedy as president in 1960, best-selling journalist James Conaway charts an entertaining and highly readable year-by-year survey through the fifties as it heralded some of the most striking and clashing aspects of twentieth-century America."--Dust jacket flap.
