5.0 out of 5 stars Very thorough, engaging, and entertaining!, September 4, 2011

This review is from: The 1980s (American Popular Culture Through History) (Hardcover)
This well-written little hardbound book delves into the popular culture of the 1980s at a level that exceeds anything else I've read about the decade. You name it, Bob Batchelor and Scott Stoddart, covers it. From the Jane Fonda fad to best-selling books to movies of all genres. I particularly liked the breakdown of the film genres (including "The Return of the Sequel" and "Marital Relations" to name a few) - oh yes, we get to relive "Fatal Attraction," still scaring the crap out of middle-aged men the world over.

If you're looking for a book with more than just lists of facts, this is a great overview of the Decade of Decadence!
