Review *** Great book to reminisce over for hours of fun. *** Bought this for my boyfriend's 60th birthday. He absolutely loved reminiscing over what the prices were of things and of special occurrences in 1960. We spent hours together reading it. NANCY E SHADRACH ; Flashback to 1960 - A Time Traveler's Guide (first edition) ; Paperback ; Amazon Verified Purchase December 15, 2020. *** Memories! *** Gave this to my husband for his 50th birthday and he loved it. It was fascinating to read about hippie life in the70s and all the news articles which were not boring at all. The advertisement pages were great- cheeky and sexist, but that's how they were back then. I'll definitely buy the next year's book for my friends who will be having their "big" birthday. WEILING LIU ; Flashback to 1970 -A Time Traveler's Guide (first edition) ; Paperback ; Etsy Reviewer September,2020. *** A great read. Couldn't put it down. *** I bought this book to add to a gift basket I am putting together for my grandparents 70th wedding anniversary. I am pretty sure they will love it. I read it myself in one night. It's an easy read, very informative,
