Book Synopsis
Shows how the issues confronted America in the late twentieth century have roots in the fifties, some apparent at the time, others only in retrospect: civil rights, environmentalism, the counterculture, and ""movements"" on behalf of women, Chicanos, and Native Americans. This book is useful for instructors of American history survey courses.

Trade Review
A significant contribution to our understanding of America during a pivotal decade in American history. Dunar masterfully illuminates the key political, diplomatic, military, and social developments of the decade and persuasively explains their intricate connections and lasting consequences.
