Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. xxv, [1], 306, [4] pages. Footnotes. Illustrations. Notes. Index. 1968 was the pivotal year in a period of nearly unprecedented change and upheaval. Charles Kaiser's 1968 in America is widely recognized as one of the best historical accounts of the 1960s. Thi…s book devotes equal attention to the personal and the political and speaks with authority about such diverse figures as Bob Dylan, Eugene McCarthy, Janis Joplin, and Lyndon Johnson. Charles Kaiser is an American author and journalist best known for his nonfiction books 1968 in America (1988), The Gay Metropolis (1997), and The Cost of Courage (2015). A former reporter for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Newsweek, he is currently a nonfiction book critic for The Guardian. Kaiser has taught journalism at Columbia University and Princeton University. 1968 was the year that defined the decadeMartin Luther King, Jr. and Bobby Kennedy were assassinated, unprecedented antiwar riots disrupted the Democratic National Convention, and the Tet Offensive in Vietnam changed the course of the war. With this political unrest came a breakthrough of American counterculture into the mainstream led by students and protesters alongside the voices of Aretha Franklin, Simon and Garfunkel, and Bob Dylan. Charles Kaiser's 1968 in America is widely recognized as one of the best historic accounts of the 1960s. Largely based on unpublished interviews and documents (including in-depth conversations with anti-war presidential candidate Eugene McCarthy and Dylan), this is compulsively readable popular history. After half a century and more later, it is even more clear that this was a uniquely terrible, wonderful, and pivotal year in the story of America. Derived from a Publisher's Weekly article: Kaiser has no ideological ax to grind, which is refreshing. He was a Columbia freshman in 1968 and has been a reporter for the New York Times , Newsweek and the Wall Street Journal . The political shockwaves of the Vietnamese Tet offensive, the rise of black militancy, the loosening effect of rock 'n' roll and the end of the liberal consensus in America are among the phenomena related with a wealth of simmering incident and detail. Eugene McCarthy's presidential campaign (for which the author was a volunteer worker) gets space. This impressionistic montage is a juicy look back, replete with interviews.
