The item is no longer available
The cold war era that saw East and West clash in the hills and plains of Korea, a desperate bid for freedom by the people of Hungary, a brutal civil war in Algeria, the debacle of the Suez Crisis, and the frenzied arrival of Rock 'n' Roll. Here are the moments that shaped the 1950s: from the French defeat in Indo-China to the Communist triumph in Cuba, from racial desegregation in Little Rock to the grip of apartheid in South Africa, from Sugar Ray Robinson's pink Cadillac to the worlds first jet airliner.
