Snippets from a Baby Boomer s Diary

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Between 1946 and 1964, virtually four million babies- 'baby boomers'-were born in Australia. As people breathed huge sighs of relief at their new-found freedom following the war years, they wanted to give their children everything they perhaps missed out on-a much better life for their offspring: home, secure family, school, and a car for outings. The greatest wealth was no longer contentment with just a little.
Snippets embarked as an attempt to try and recall most people's deep connection with Brisbane-the place where numerous Australian baby boomers were born and had become domiciled. It trawls all through the conservative decades of the 1950s and the action packed swinging 1960s; the political upheavals within the 1970s; and the 'greed is good' agendas of the 1980s and beyond.
