America in the 1960’s

This book provides thorough and balanced coverage of the history of the decade of the 60’s. It was a decade of rejecting the old and embracing the new. A decade of upheaval, the 1960s witnessed the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the Civil Rights movement, the escalation of the Vietnam War, the Beatles’ performance on The Ed Sullivan Show, and the successful landing of three astronauts on the Moon. The spirit of change was also seen in the areas of art, music, fashion, movies, television, and literature.
