Now that’s what I call a history of the 1980s tells the story of eighties Britain through its popular culture. Charting era-defining moments from Lady Diana’s legs and the miners’ strike to Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage and Adam and the Ants, Lucy Robinson weaves together an alternative history to the one we think we know. This is not a history of big geopolitical disasters, or a nostalgic romp through discos, shoulder pads and yuppie culture. Instead, the book explores a mashing together of different genres and fan bases in order to make sense of our recent past and give new insights into the decade that defined both globalisation and excess. Packed with archival and cultural research but written with verve and spark, the book offers as much to general readers as to scholars of this period, presenting a distinctive and definitive contemporary history of 1980s Britain, from pop to politics, to cold war cultures, censorship and sexuality.

All my life, I grew up listening to my father tell stories of his life, especially his wartime experiences. I knew these stories had to be put into print for future generations to enjoy. The events recounted here reflect the true voice of my father. While reading the text, I can picture a group of family and friends of all ages sitting around him, captivated by his life's stories. The favorites are always of the 78th Infantry Division and all the characters he fought with. Now these stories will be told forever.
