Publisher's Synopsis
With the passing of the 20th century into history, the 1960s are viewed as one of its most crucial decades-an era of unprecedented social and cultural revolution. Across the world, barriers collapsed, new freedoms were claimed, and an explosion of creative energy electrified the arts, fashion, politics, and lifestyles-not always without accompanying turmoil. This stylishly produced series of books looks at the arts, fashions, passions, people, and events in pivotal cities-London, New York, Paris, and San Francisco-through some of the defining images of the decade. Featuring the work of the era's leading photographers, these books offer both insights and surprises.
