Tribe: Made in Britain: A Personal History of British Subculture

by Martin Roach, Ian Snowball, Pete McKenna

From punks and teddy boys to mods and rockers, the last 50 years has seen the British Isles overrun with the iconic styles and attitudes—youthful "tribes" changing the world with their bold new ideas. Britain's youth movements are regarded worldwide as pinnacles of musical, fashion and artistic expression. As a reaction to post-War austerity and social conservatism, the youth of Britain have consistently broken the mold, pioneering counter-culture movements across the world and shrugging off the shackles of old authority. The authors have amassed a wealth of exclusive interviews with key players from all the iconic groups, as well as stunning unpublished photographs from personal collections. The result is a beautifully produced visual and literary tribute to Britain's vibrant young underbelly and the passionate cauldron of creativity they continue to stir up.
