Year the Dream Died Tapa dura - 1997
de Jules Witcover
For millions of Americans, the dream that we would at last face up with compassion to our most basic problems at home and abroad was shattered in 1968 by such tumultuous events as the assassinations of Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr., and the election of Richard Nixon. In this book, a prominent journalist explores that pivotal year and examines the cynical social and political climate that resulted from it.
Descripción de contraportada
Month by month, Witcover re-creates 1968 as he travels with, and reports on, the political fortunes of Lyndon Johnson, Eugene McCarthy, Richard Nixon, Robert Kennedy, George Romney, and Hubert Humphrey. He conveys the actual words of national figures and commentary by rock artists, media people, economists, Vietnam veterans, and Haight-Ashbury hippies. That year Witcover crossed the country from New Hampshire to California; he was standing on the rioting streets of Washington with Robert Kennedy after King was shot; he was in the kitchen of the Ambassador Hotel the night Kennedy was gunned down. An eyewitness to history, he presents a unique perspective that captures the mood of a nation and the life of ordinary people as shattering news erupts from assassins' bullets and backroom deals. Witcover broadens our understanding of how that year sowed the seeds of liberalism's demise, the shame of Watergate, Reagan's long reign, and today's new Democratic agenda.
