More about the book

The book explores the transformative cultural landscape for British teenagers after World War II, highlighting the explosion of youth venues and the rise of juke boxes from fewer than 100 in 1945 to over 15,000 by 1958. It captures the vibrant atmosphere of cafés and bars that became popular gathering spots, where youth engaged with the new sounds of American jazz and rock 'n' roll, reflecting a significant shift in social dynamics and youth culture during this era.
