Growing up in the seventies

This title features interviews with four people from different walks of life - rich, poor, urban and country dwellers - who grew up in the 1970s.

Their memories and reflections combined with historical infomation and photographs, give a real sense of what life was like as a child during the era of platform shoes and glamrock; what their homelife was like, what food they ate and where they went on holidays.

It also discusses important events of the 1970s, such as the Arab-Israeli fuel crisis of 1973, the first Concorde flight in 1976, the miners' strike and the Silver Jubilee. This book can be used for Key Stage 2 History: Britain since 1930.
