America comes face to face with its dark side in volume four of David Halberstam's The Fifties. David Halberstam's The Fifties, Vol. 4: A Burning Desire showcases the real story behind the country's Victorian morals. Halberstam exposes citizen's real behavior when he questions sexual taboos. The Kinsey Report opened a world of truth with its revelation that American's social positions varied widely from their private ones. The country's increasing fascination with sex was obvious with the elevation of stars like Marilyn Monroe. Playboy emerged during this decade as well and women finally claimed some freedom of their own with the invention of "The Pill." ~ Sarah Ing, Rovi
