"'The 50s In Pictures' is one of a series of books that together provide a comprehensive pictorial history of the 20th century, decade by decade. With over 250 pictures, this volume is a unique record of the moments that shaped the 1950s: from the French defeat in Indo-China to the Communist triumph in Cuba, from racial desegregation in Little Rock to the grip of 'apartheid' in South Africa, from Sugar RayRobinson's pink Cadillac to the world's first jet airliner." -- Back cover
