It works on two distinct levels. First, having lived in the San Fernando Valley during that period, I found the book to be the most delightful, teary-eyed journey back to the old stomping grounds...who says you can't go back home?! To see a picture of the old Encino Bowl...the last time I even thought about it was when I was sneaking a ...             80629: A Mengele Experiment15 reviews Gene Church Route Sixty Six Publishing, Limited, 1995 A Mengele Experiment - Man's Inhumanity to Man Personified `80629' A Mengele Experiment by Gene Church is the story of Yakoff Skurnik's journey through the hell that was known as Auschwitz. The horrors that are described in this book are almost beyond belief, beyond comprehension, beyond the brain's ability to register them, yet they were common place in Skurnik's world. The fact that he was able to survive any portion of this monstrous existence is a ...             Sixty Seconds: One Moment Changes Everything18 reviews Phil Bolsta Atria Books/Beyond Words, 2008 Inspirational & Uplifting Book! 60 Seconds: One Moment Changes Everything by Phil Bolsta is a wonderful book.

Lee, Bruce Shlain Pan Books, 2001 EXCELLENT This book is perfect - It offered everything I was hoping for when I first purchased it. It covered from the end of the 50's and the Beat generation and how their influence lead into the hippie generation, and it ended in the early 70's tying in the beginning of rock and punk. It is a true spectrum of the 1960's counterculture generation. It's a large book but its facinating to learn about ...             The House of Sixty Fathers12 reviews Meindert Dejong HarperCollins, 1956 What an adventure! I read this book as a child and, in turn, read it to my children. It has a permanent place in our hearts. It is the well written story of a young Chinese boy and his beloved pig, "Glory of the Republic", who get separated from his family and caught behind Japanese lines when Japan invaded China in the late 1930's. It has some very scary moments. It also has tragedy. I think your child ...             Blue Fairways: Three Months, Sixty Courses, No Mulligans14 reviews Charles Slack Henry Holt & Co, 2000 Slack scores an ace If you've ever topped a drive off the first tee or missed a three-footer on 18 while trying record your career low round, you'll be able to identify with Charles Slack's golf game. When it comes to writing, though, he's scratch. One brief example will suffice. Describing the contrast between the front and back nines at the Ponce De Leon course in St. Augustine Florida, he says, "The back ...             The 60 Second Organizer: Sixty Solid Techniques for Beating Chaos at Home and at Work12 reviews Electronic & Database Publishing, Inc., 2008 Besting the paper tiger I hate paper. And nowadays, the stuff that comes in the house can't just be sorted to be dealt with or thrown out, you have to SHRED a lot of the trash. Holy hell, what a pain THAT is. If you let any of it sit, you have a huge pile in no time. And online billpay is not really reducing any of this mess. In fact, I find that the mix of paper payments and online just makes a confused mess. The ...             Vietnam Zippos: American Soldiers' Engravings and Stories (1965-1973)15 reviews University Of Chicago Press, 2007 Edwards - not Buchanan - wrote this tale While reading this extraordinary and unique book it is obvious that Edwards put the time and effort into this project and Buchanan packaged it. Yet Buchanan seems to want all the credit. She alone is listed as the author, but what did she actually do? She wrote a distant and dry essay - well written no doubt, but what exactly is her relationship to this fascinating object called the Vietnam ...             A Time it Was: Bobby Kennedy in the Sixties12 reviews Bill Eppridge Abrams, 2008 Memory Lane This book of pictures was a wonderful walk down memory lane for me. At 16 I was to join the Kennedy campaign as a volunteer after the California primary. On the morning I was to depart, my parents woke me with the news of his shooting. This book, however, reminded me of the promise unfulfilled Robert Kennedy represented--how much better we would have been as a people, as a country, as a ...             The Movement and The Sixties9 reviews Terry H. Anderson Oxford University Press, USA, 1996 Terrific Look At The Sixties Social Movement! I stumbled upon this wonderful book as a used book at the local bookshop, and was delighted to discover just how complete and accurate a description it renders of the virtual kaleidoscope of activities associated with what came to be called 'the movement" in what was likely the most turbulent and tumultuous decade of the 20th century; the nineteen sixties. Professor Terry Anderson delivers a ...             The Sixty-Second Motivator10 reviews Jim Johnson Dog Ear Publishing, LLC, 2006 Small Book With a BIG Impact Being a cardiac rehab nurse and spending a lot of time each day trying to get people to change their lifestyles to create better health, this book caught my eye.

Some of the fashions, hairstyles, designs, attitudes, and language that you'll encounter will make you laugh, cry, deeply ponder, and wonder how the world could have changed so much since that era. The book begins with a ...             Crossroads: 196910 reviews John, W Cassell Inkwater Press, 2005 Review of John W. Cassell's "Crossroads: 1969" Review of John W. Cassell's "Crossroads: 1969" (Once, We Were Young) - By Jack Engelhard John W. Cassell traveled to Europe in search of America and to understand this it helps to be a Child of the 60s -though in a sense we are all Children of the 60s since the art, the music, the literature and even the politics of that era, all of it is still very much alive. In "Crossroads: 1969," Cassell' ...             Figures of Speech ~ Sixty Ways to Turn a Phrase10 reviews Arthur Quinn Gibbs M. Smith, 1982 Concise and useful Professor Quinn's slim volume is perhaps the best treatment of the subject of rhetorical devices that I have ever read. I say "best," not because it is the most extensive, nor because it is the most detailed coverage of the subject. I say "best" because I feel it is the most *useful* coverage I have ever encountered. In concise fashion, Professor Quinn takes the reader through many of the ...             Gracefully: Looking and Being Your Best at Any Age8 reviews Valerie Ramsey, Heather Hummel McGraw-Hill, 2008 Motivational and Practical I found this book to be so easy to read with practical useful advice on creating a life that you want. It was inspirational at the same time, making me reaffirm my beliefs that one can accomplish whatever one puts one's mind to. I have passed this on to my mother and recommended to my girlfriends and aunts, but the over-riding message of this book is applicable to both genders. Worth the read. ...             The Mason Williams reading matter8 reviews Mason Williams DoubleDay, 1969 A Lost Treasure Found. We had this book in our house at some point in the early 70's. At a time when we 5 teenagers were in almost daily conflict with our parents, this book was something that we all enjoyed and laughed about together. It helped us to make a connection with them at a time when connecting was not easy. The book disappeared somehow, and we have since tried many times to recall the words to all the "How ...             I Think, Therefore Who Am I?10 reviews Peter Weissman Xlibris Corporation, 2006 A hippie with a memory for the details - how does he do it? Somehow, after all these years, Peter Weissman has managed to uncannily capture the texture, the rhythm and the dialogue of stoned young people living in NYC's East Village in 1967. At a time when books on the sixties have become more common as the protagonists reach their sixties, Weissman's work is unusual in depicting the life of an everyday hippie, not a Weatherman or a celebrity.
