Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
With Teenage Confidential Chronicle Books presents another of their densely illustrated gift volumes, and, as usual, the layout and extremely rich color photos are dazzling. The imagery is so intense that it would be easy to miss the fluidly written history of the American teen that surrounds the illustrations. Pictures of shindigs and sock hops mix with reproductions from teen comic books and teenybopper record covers to provide a complete visual history of this oddly modern culture of fleeting youth desperately trying to have fun.

The New York Times Book Review, Leslie Chess Feller
...a wryly nostalgic trip back to the future, a tribute to "the way we were ... when we weren't in detention, that is."
