Description

The Mods and Rockers: A British Scene in Turmoil In the spring of 1964, two rival groups clashed in Britain's seaside towns, sparking a moral panic that would have far-reaching consequences. The Mods and Rockers had grown in numbers throughout the early 1960s, but by Easter '64, their differences had become too great to ignore. Author Gareth Brown delves into the origins of both movements, tracing their development from conception to the divisions that eventually drove them apart. This book provides a detailed study of the Mods and Rockers, exploring their enduring impact on popular culture today. By examining this pivotal moment in British history, Mods & Rockers offers a fascinating insight into the social and cultural upheaval of the 1960s, and how it continues to shape our world today.
