The writers of these 27 memoirs offer the essence of life and youth in the period. In first-person narratives that range from poignant reminiscences to dramatic adventures, the writers convey what it felt like to land a helicopter in the middle of a firefight in Vietnam, to be beaten and jailed for trying to integrate restaurants in the American South, to run for cover when soldiers opened fire on a campus peace rally in Ohio. Other stories describe the writers' experiences organizing farm workers with Cesar Chavez, campaigning to elect Barry Goldwater, striking for Free Speech at Berkeley, living in a commune, joining the women's liberation movement, becoming caught up in a religious cult, or camping in the rain at Woodstock.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51665889165600,"sku":"NEW0131840770","price":44.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71Lz656m85L.jpg?v=1778915105","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/time-it-was-american-stories-from-the-sixties-0131840770","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
