60 Going on Fifty: The Baby Boomers Memory Book
Autor Ed Poole, Kathi Pooleen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2010
Remember the good ol’ days?” We often hear Baby Boomers ask that question, but do we take the time to really remember? Do we share those stories with our children and grandchildren so they know who we are, how we lived our lives, and why we chose the paths we did?
60 Going on Fifty: The Baby Boomers Memory Book is the story of sixteen “guys” who graduated from Columbus High School (Indiana) in May, 1960. With their 50th high school reunion on the horizon, the “Columbus Crew” reconnected. The guys tell stories about growing up in the ‘40s, ‘50s, and ‘60s, and how those times impacted who they are today. They share their thoughts, feelings, emotions, memories, and journeys. While the stories are unique to the Columbus Crew, their stories are certain to rekindle your memories of growing up in this glorious era, or show non-Boomers what life was like for your parents and grandparents.
The Columbus Crew takes you back to the days of…flat tops, LPs, the Hula Hoop, transistor radios, Lassie, 20 cents per gallon gas, the Big Band Era to Rock and Roll. The guys share stories of first cars, girlfriends, sports, jobs, getting into trouble and finding their way out, and much more. Hop into your’57 Chevy ragtop and take a ride down memory lane.

Recenzii
Ed and Kathi have compiled the stories of The Columbus Crew—coming of age in the ‘40s, ‘50s, and ‘60s and influencing their world in the latter half of the 20th Century and the first decade of the 21st—in a way that will capture the hearts of any generation. What a great read! Tom Paulsen—Naperville, IL
If you are a “Boomer” or a little older (like me) Ed and Kathi’s book will help you conjure up the memories and experiences that helped make you the person you are today, decades after the events occurred. Take the time to remember, smile, and appreciate. William (Bill) Salter—Wilmington, NC
Small, tough, and smart was how Coach Max Andress described his 1959 undefeated high school football team. You will be able to identify with the 1959 Bull Dogs as athletes, but more importantly as a group of young men who had the same highs and lows as you. The team’s sense of commitment to success and selfless behavior on the field carried over into each of their lives, as you will read. Delores Andress—Columbus, IN
All Baby Boomers will certainly be interested readers of Ed and Kathi Poole’s accounts of growing up in a small southern Indiana community in the 1940’s and 1950’s. 60 Going on 50 will appeal to anyone fascinated with the development of a different kind of town and the evolution of attitudes among a generation several years removed from the 21st Century. Harry McCawley—Columbus, IN
