- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Warner Books
- Publish date: 06/01/1998
Description:
The assasinations of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr., the Tet Offensive in Vietnam, campus riots, and the election of Richard Nixon led to disappointment, division, and self-doubt that bred distrust of the nation's leaders and institutions. The year is 1968, and for millions of Americans, the dream of a nation facing up to basic problems at home and abroad was shattered, creating a cynical social and political climate that continues to exist today. Month-by-month, Jules Witcover recreates 1968, bringing it back in clean, powerful prose, broadening the understanding of how, in that year, America went terribly wrong.
Expand description
Prominent journalist Jules Witcover looks at the most pivotal year in modern American history -- and the irrevocable effects it has on today's society.
