Woodstock 50th Anniversary by Mike Greenblatt

Woodstock 50th Anniversary by Mike Greenblatt was received direct from the publisher and I chose to review it. Woodstock, the musical event of the decade happened when I was a wee tike in flyover country surrounded by deplorables. I would have loved too have been there and I love to watch shows and read books about the event. This particular book, being the 50th Anniversary "telling" of the Woodstock story, did a good job of telling the Woodstock story without being boring and adding photographs I had not seen before from the event. If you, or someone you buy gifts for want to read about this event, some behind the scenes information, some audience stories, etc. Give this book a read, though I HIGHLY suggest a hard copy, it is not a good Kindle book due to the photos and formatting. Keep in mind the 1960's were as turbulent as todays times, yet there is no way we could get half a million people together at one place and not have immense riots, I mean "peaceful protests," like we do nowadays.
