The Baby Boom - over-sized, overwrought, overbearing, and all over the place, from Donovan to Obama. The generation that said with a straight face, 'We are the world.' What's so funny about peace, love and understanding? Ask the generation responsible for the fall of the Berlin Wall and their knickers. Who put their faith in the Kyoto Accord and disco. Who dropped out of the capitalist system and popped back again in time to cause a global financial crisis.

How did the Baby Boom become what it is and who let them get away with it?

P.J. O'Rourke is the author of sixteen books, including Parliament of Whores and Give War a Chance, both of which were number-one New York Times bestsellers. His most recent book is Holidays in Heck.
