Where were you on the day Kennedy was assassinated? During the Cuban Missile Crisis? When Martin Luther King was shot? When blood flowed on the streets of Chicago? When astronauts landed on the moon? These tumultuous events and many more comprise the melodramatic decade of the 1960's. This was a tumultuous time which intrigues people of all ages: middle-aged «yuppies» because they were part of the Youth Rebellion; senior citizens because they were part of the Silent Majority reaction; and young people of today out of a curiosity for an uproarious and glamorous era they missed. This is a popular history highlighting the Kennedy, Johnson, and first two years of the Nixon Administrations. It explores the happenings in sports, religion, music, art, society, culture, and law as well as the nuclear confrontation, political violence and repression, civil rights, and the Vietnam War – all of which characterized the decade. Read it and reminisce.
