Amazing to re-read our history from the perspective of an adult. Remembering bits and pieces from the sixties when I was a kid and saw reports on TV when my parents watched the news each night. Or when we had aunts and uncles over and the adults had conversations about the war or the riots. And what was going to happen next in our country? Very interesting to read the details now.

Finished this book for my history course. It was very good as it combined details of the political and social aspects of the sixties.

On the radio today (WGBH) the Chancellor of a California University reminded his university staff that students have the right to non-violent protest on campus. This is very interesting as I read all about the college protests and how they were handled (badly) in the sixties! Hopefully we have learned from the past!!!

Very good - reading and taking notes for my course. Excellent chronological record of significant events through this decade with added details from many perspectives - social, political, financial, educational.

This is described as a compact account of the sixties and this is very true! For the history course I'm taking this book is excellent. It tracks the events going on in the U.S. and I'm the world. It is easy to follow and them reference later. Will finish next week.
