Orbiting Neptune: a baby boomer memoir

by Ted Polhemus

Neptune, New Jersey, USA - 1947-1995 in photos and text. The war ends, the GIs come home to small towns like Neptune. Not much has changed and then everything the rise of suburbia, TV, fast food, shopping centers, rock 'n' roll and the baby boom. With Bruce Springsteen bringing us 'Greetings From Asbury Park' + Jack Nicholson and Danny DeVito playing themselves in cameo roles. This is the story of one family in one town in America - not so important in and of itself but a record of an era and a lifestyle which changed the world.
