White House to your house
I mistakenly shelved this book with my religion and philosophy books. Yes, it discusses the quality of life and how to attain it, but Michener is writing at the collective level, not the individual. My copy also has my great-grandfather's bookplate (will excise) but my father's library stamp, so I'm not quite sure whose pencil underlining is throughout the book. (One good reason to mark up your books is to give future readers the opportunity to appreciate your thoughts. I adore some of my ancestors' heavily marked copies.)
Much of Michener's critique of the 1960s is still applicable. Post-Baby-Boomers may also be interested in reading contemporary writing on the draft and its impact.
A lovely quote for librarians: "The library of the future may very well be twofold: an underground repository for precious old books published prior to 1980 which no one sees or handles, plus a crisp reading disk to which chips from any library in the world are delivered electronically as you dial for them."
