Mods & Rockers - Book - by Gareth Brown
(2022)
An
unparalleled moral panic gripped the people of Britain during the
spring of 1964 as two bitterly opposed domestic factions, the like of
which had not been seen before, clashed in the nation's seafront towns.
The Mods and the Rockers had grown in numbers throughout the decade's
early years and by Easter '64 their ranks and more importantly their
differences had become so great that they could no longer be ignored.
The overt hostility these two groups displayed toward each other rose
until conflict was inevitable. The ominous signs of this impending
explosion were spectacularly missed by the authorities until it was way
too late. In Mods & Rockers,
author Gareth Brown explains the genesis of both movements right
through from their conception to the cell splitting that separated them.
It closely studies their development, and most importantly, highlights
their enduring impact on the popular culture of today.
