Publisher's Synopsis
Since the celebrated rise of Britpop, the peculiarly British mod phenomena has been back in the media spotlight. Now paolo Hewitt, celebrated rock journalist and biographer of Oasis, The Jam and The Small Faces, has collected together some of the best writings on mod: the music, the fashions and the entire way of life. Going beyond the surface cliches, Hewitt's hugely readable collection fully documents one of the most misunderstood cultural movements of our time with writing as sharp as the creases in a zoot suit.
