The Defining Generation: True Stories of a generation that challenged the traditions of the past, and in its search for meaning and purpose, redefined the world we live in today. - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Fifteen years in development, “The Defining Generation” is a 600+ page tribute to the children of “The Greatest Generation.” Baby boomers themselves, authors Doug and Pam Sterner weave personal vignettes, history, and the inspiring true stories of heroes and leaders of their generation. It is a positive portrayal of a generation in rebellion that rose up against traditions of the past, rejecting “the establishment” and its narrow views of life, equality, poverty and world need. The genesis of their thesis: “The Greatest Generation indeed saved our world (in World War II), but their children redefined it, making it better.” Based on personal friendships and dozens of interviews with other Baby Boomer movers, shakers, leaders and trendsetters, this book is an anthology they hope will inspire and motivate future generations. Note the authors: “If you are a Baby Boomer who reads this book, it will make you proud of our achievements. If you are the offspring of a Baby Boomer, herein you will learn things about your parents/grandparents you never knew, and gain a new appreciation for them. If you are the parents of a Baby Boomer and read this book...well, you’ll probably just shake your head and say, ‘Now I understand why hamsters eat their young’.”
