[Ian MacIntyre · Rating 3 out of 5]

I received this book as a gift on my 50th birthday. Who knew that a 1958 yearbook is about 1957. LOL Oh well, lot’s of interesting things.

1957 - Sputnik, Jimmy Hoffa’s a bad guy, 1st Civil Rights Act, NORAD, Queen Elizabeth televised opening Parliament, Pearson won Noble Peace Prize for creating the U. N. Peace Keepers, Elvis Presley, chemotherapy, All About Eve, On the Beach & On the Road, etc.

A great gift. It took some time, but I got through. Now I am hunting for a 1959 yearbook.
