Britmania

More about the book

Remember when long-haired British rock 'n' rollers made teenage girls swoon -- and their parents go crazy? Britmania plunges into the period when suddenly, America went wild for All Things British. This profusely illustrated full-color hardback, subtitled "The British Invasion of the Sixties in Pop Culture," explores the movies (A Hard Day's Night, Having a Wild Weekend), TV (The Ed Sullivan Show, Magical Mystery Tour), collectibles (toys, games, trading cards, lunch boxes), comics (real-life Brits in the DC and Marvel Universes) and, of course, the music! Written and designed by Mark Voger (Monster Mash, Groovy, Holly Jolly), Britmania features interviews with members of the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, The Who, the Kinks, Herman's Hermits, the Yardbirds, the Animals, the Hollies and more. It's a gas, gas, gas!
