1960--LBJ vs. JFK vs. Nixon: The Epic Campaign That Forged Three Presidencies
David Pietrusza

Union Square Press, 2008

It was the election that would ultimately give America “Camelot” and its tragic aftermath, a momentous contest when three giants who each would have a chance to shape the nation battled to win the presidency. Award-winning author David Pietrusza does here for the 1960 presidential race what he did in his previous book, 1920: the Year of the Six Presidents —which Kirkus Reviews selected as one of their Best Books of 2007. ...

Rome 1960: The Olympics That Changed the World

14 reviews
David Maraniss

Simon & Schuster, 2008

The Cold War, Drugs, Twin China's, Erosion of Amateur Athletics, Brundage and the Great Stars That Shine
Maraniss defines the 1960 Olympics that changed the world not purely because of the political influence of the Cold War, that was obvious in 1936, but in describing the emergence of Russia as a dominant athletic power where the Soviet Union and the U.S. became the dominant medal winners and where the cold war rhetoric emerged more directly in the Olympics as they increasingly did over the next ...

Art Since 1960 (World of Art)
Michael Archer

Thames & Hudson, 2002

Art today may seem perplexing at first with its divergent styles, forms, practices, media, and agendas. Michael Archer's intelligently argued survey is unique in revealing and making coherent sense of art practice from the past forty years—Pop, Minimal, Conceptual, Land, Performance, Body, and Installation—and myriad developments in the work of Warhol, Beuys, Bourgeois, and the many other artists whose works are discussed and ...

The Best Game Ever: Pirates 10, Yankees 9: October 13, 1960

Jim Reisler

Da Capo Press, 2007

the best for Bucs fan but most disheartening for Yankee fan's
I guess this is a great game to relive on tape. It seesawed back and forth. The Yanks were in control until the easy DP ball hit Kubek in the adam's apple. He had to leave and Hal Smith followed with a three run home run to turn the game around. In the top of the ninth the Yanks scored and they were trailing 9-8 with runners on first and third. Mantle was on first and Berra was at the plate. ...

The Secret to Happiness
What is happiness? On April 25, 1960, Charles Schulz, through his character Lucy told us: Happiness is a warm puppy. This immortal sentence is just one of the things that appears in the fifth volume of The Complete Peanuts, which comprises the years 1959 and 1960. As in previous volumes, we see once again why Peanuts is considered by many to be the best comic strip ever. In some sense, ...

Making of the President 1960

Theodore White

Book of the Month Club, 1988

The Beginning of a New Genre
It's not often that a journalist (or writer) starts a completely new genre of writing. That's exactly what Theodore H. White did. A journalist at the time, who had written a couple of novels and three other books, he went on to write books on the elections of 1964, 1968, 1972 and culminating with America In Search of Itself. He was recognized as one of the leading political journalists of his ...

Brilliant political writing
A reprint of the original edition from 1961; has the look and feel of a classic, especially if you are too poor to own one. Amazing photos of the Kennedy campaign.

American Cars of the 1960's

1 review

Publications International, 2007

Candy cars
I bought the first book in this series: American Cars of the 1950's because it had an interesting editorial format in that all the images were illustrations taken from auto ads and sales brochures of the period. This second book having moved on a decade mostly uses photographs. Both books run the makers alphabetically with a spread or two devoted to each model for each year. The text is very ...

Pop Dreams: Music, Movies, and the Media in the American 1960's (Harbrace Books on America Since 1945)

1 review
Archie Loss

Wadsworth Publishing, 1998

brief and well written
This little book could easily have been a fully fledged tome. Loss surveys the popular American media in the 1960s. He shows how it echoed and in turn fed back on the burning issues of the times. The Vietnam War and the civil rights movement. There is discussion of politics at the Federal level, with the actions of US Presidents being key events. But Loss manages to tie this all into a ...

For sale by the U.S. G.P.O., Supt. of Docs, 1999

Exceptional Work
This book is the work of two very bright scholars who live near the Marshall Space Flight Center. The work is well written and thorough. I found the authors investigation of the Challenger accident and its aftermath particularly well done. I highly recommend this book.

The Age of Impeachment: American Constitutional Culture Since 1960
David E. Kyvig

University Press of Kansas, 2008

In this magisterial new work, Bancroft Prize-winning historian David Kyvig chronicles the rise of a culture of impeachment since 1960--one that extends far beyond the infamous scandals surrounding Presidents Richard Nixon (Watergate) and Bill Clinton (Monica Lewinsky) and has dramatically altered the face of American politics. A buzz word in today's public life, "impeachment" was anything but that before 1960. Since then it has been ...

Good quality Bible in Spanish.
Contrary to the description, the letters are normal, not large size. If you are looking for large letters, get the extra large print.
