The assassinations of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr., the Tet Offensive in Vietnam, campus riots, and the election of Richard Nixon led to disappointment, division, and self-doubt that bred distrust of the nation's leaders and institutions. For millions of Americans, the dream that we would at last face up with compassion to our most basic problems at home and abroad was shattered in 1968, and the groundwork was laid for the cynical social and political climate that exists today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jules Witcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0446518492\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780446518499\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Grand Central Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.29h x 6.32w x 1.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/05\/1997 pg. 185\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/1997 pg. 709\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/1997 pg. 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/22\/1997 pg. 7\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/1997 pg. 1653\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNY Times Notable Bks of Year\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1997 pg. 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNY Times Notable Bks of Year\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1998 pg. 78","brand":"Jules Witcover","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44159201050879,"sku":"9780446518499","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2c23112e-33db-48b0-b46e-935090b7a1e9.jpg?v=1689081206","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/year-the-dream-died-jules-witcover-9780446518499","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
