  • Summary

    This chapter uses Bill Shankly’s appointment as manager as the jumping off point for a discussion of LFC and the city of Liverpool on the cusp of the 60s. It examines the pre-1959 career of Bill Shankly, his early (not immediately successful) years as LFC boss, and the club’s long and fruitful relationship with Scottish football. The arrival of the ultimate Scottish hero, Shankly, is placed in the context of e.g. the 1892/93 ‘Team of the Macs’ and popular players such as Alex Raisbeck and later Manchester United manager Matt Busby.

  • Summary

    This chapter centers on the counterculture’s attitude toward “greatness,” primarily through the odd coupling of the Beatles and Muhammad Ali. The chapter addresses racism, the Vietnam War, and the rebellion against the idyllic forms of greatness furnished by the so-described establishment of the 1950s. The Beatles and Ali (and their supporters) had to come to terms with new expectations and measures of American greatness.
