About the Book

My 6ixties Revisited is an autobiographical book of memories, history, and opinions, during the author's life in two fascinating decades. You will see life from the author's perspective during the tumultuous nineteen 6ixties as a pre-teen and teenager and during his 60's as an adult. The two decades, roughly 50 years apart, look at the past, present, and possibly a glimpse into our country's future. Topics include family life, primary schooling at St Andrew, sports, and music from the nineteen 6ixties. You will also read about political points of historical importance during that decade including Vietnam, civil rights. protests, space, and political assassinations. A 'bridge' covering forty-three years carry the author from the nineteen 6ixties to the author's 60's in short bullet points. The author's 60's look at life in the years 2013 to 2023 from his seasoned perspective. You will read about things that mattered to the author but also had an impact on many people. We continue to look at sports and family events but also the political landscape and a thing called Covid. The author's 60's focus on his interest in travel including seeing his favorite sports team and takes a deep dive into his love of the game of golf. You will walk fairways with the author at St Andrews and other iconic 'True Links' layouts in the U.K. and Ireland. You will notice similarities and differences in America fifty years apart. References are used often. I hope you enjoy.
