Witness to the revolution: radicals, resisters, vets, hippies, and the year America lost its mind and found its soul
(CD Audiobook)
Description
As the 1960s drew to a close, the United States was coming apart at the seams. From August 1969 to August 1970, the nation witnessed nine thousand protests and eighty-four acts of arson or bombings at schools across the country. It was the year of the My Lai massacre investigation, the Cambodia invasion, Woodstock, and the Moratorium to End the War. The American death toll in Vietnam was approaching fifty thousand, and the ascendant counterculture was challenging nearly every aspect of American society. Clara Bingham's unique oral history of that tumultuous time unveils anew that moment when America careened to the brink of a civil war at home, as it fought a long, futile war abroad.
