The 1970s Decade in Photos

Protest and Change

Series: Amazing Decades in Photos

By Jim Corrigan

The 1970s were a time of protest and change. Yet, they were happy times, too. The nation celebrated two hundred years of independence. Audiences enjoyed hit films such as STAR WARS and JAWS. People dressed in funky clothes. They danced to the beat of disco music. This photo-driven book with fast-paced text shows the 1970s as a decade of change.

Reviews

"The mainly color photographs and illustrations drive the easy-to-read narrative . . . simple sentence structure works well for older students needing hi-lo resources."

Library Media Connection, March/April 2010

"The eleven-volume series spans the entire twentieth century and would be a useful addition to a middle-grade history classroom."

VOYA, October 2011

". . . each 64-page book in this outstanding series features an informed and informative accompanying text . . . strongly recommended for both school and community library collections."

Children's Bookwatch, January 2010

"Characterizing a decade in one slim book involves making choices--Corrigan has done quite well at selecting nineteen significant events or developments for each decade since 1900."

Children's Literature

"Attractive and readable, this series will be popular with browsers and beginning researchers."

School Library Journal, April 2010

". . . clear, informative text, that is understandable for 5th graders and up . . . This is a useful source for students to gain an overview and begin research . . ."
