Synopsis

You were born the year the Interstate Highway System was signed into law. You got your driver's license about a year before the gas lines started.

Being born in 1956 put you at a very specific angle to the American century — old enough to remember a downtown that was still the center of a town, young enough to have spent your teenage Saturdays in the mall that replaced it.

This book follows your actual timeline: four years old at Kennedy's election, seven that weekend in November 1963, thirteen the night of the moon landing, sixteen behind the wheel, eighteen the summer a president resigned.

Inside this book you'll discover:

• The precise mechanics of things you did a thousand times and never once described — the coin taped to the tonearm, the sugar cube in the school gymnasium, the ker-chunk of an eight-track changing programs mid-song
• Why the radio station from four states away only came in after dark, and what that meant to a boy in a small town at eleven at night
• 101 fully entries covering childhood, school, the neighborhood, television, music, sports, cars, first jobs, dating, and life before smartphones
• A personal timeline placing 27 confirmed historical events beside your exact age at each one
• 50 open-ended questions built to be answered out loud — to a wife, a brother, a son, a grandchild

This book is for:

• People, Men born in 1956 turning 70 — and the families looking for a gift that isn't another coffee mug
• Anyone who learned to drive on a column shift and remembers what a clutch cost him
• Readers who want history told through ordinary detail rather than headlines
• Sons and daughters who want their father to start talking

The 50 conversation questions turn this from something read alone into something shared. Order your copy and start remembering the things nobody thought to write down.
