Description

It is a social history of a surf town - which happens to be Byron Bay. It is the story of the surfers, American and Australian, who made Byron Bay their home in the 1960s and 1970s. These stories, as told to the author, are of a time in Byron that changed its history forever. Culture wars. Freedom, rebellion, they believed they were going to change the world. It explains how a backwater NSW slaughterhouse town became the beating heart of Australian counterculture, a crossroads creative Mecca, a world-class surf destination, and one of the planet's most desirable addresses and expensive real estate.
