A Northern Wind

In A Northern Wind, David Kynaston delves into the transformative early sixties in Britain, covering the period from 1962 to 1965. This volume in the acclaimed Tales of a New Jerusalem series captures pivotal events like the arrival of the Beatles, political upheavals, and significant social changes through meticulous research and engaging storytelling. By weaving together personal accounts and historical documents, Kynaston not only recounts major happenings—such as the Cuban Missile Crisis and the funeral of Winston Churchill—but also portrays the evolving landscape of British society, marked by an anti-Establishment sentiment and the rise of consumer culture.
