Essays, memoirs, and more by fourteen award-winning authors offer unique perspectives on one of the world's most tumultuous years.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNineteen sixty-eight was a pivotal year that grew more intense with each day. As thousands of Vietnamese and Americans were killed in war, students across four continents took over colleges and city streets. Assassins murdered Dr. King and Robert F. Kennedy. Demonstrators turned out in Prague and Chicago, and in Mexico City, young people and Olympic athletes protested. In those intense months, generations battled and the world wobbled on the edge of some vast change that was exhilarating one day and terrifying the next. To capture that extraordinary year, editors Marc Aronson and Susan Campbell Bartoletti created an anthology that showcases many genres of nonfiction. Some contributors use a broad canvas, others take a close look at a moment, and matched essays examine the same experience from different points of view. As we face our own moments of crisis and division, \u003ci\u003e1968 \u003c\/i\u003ereminds us that we've clashed before and found a way forward -- and that looking back can help map a way ahead. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eWith contributions by: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJennifer Anthony\u003cbr\u003eMarc Aronson\u003cbr\u003eSusan Campbell Bartoletti\u003cbr\u003eLoree Griffin Burns\u003cbr\u003ePaul Fleischman\u003cbr\u003eOmar Figueras\u003cbr\u003eLaban Carrick Hill\u003cbr\u003eMark Kurlansky\u003cbr\u003eLenore Look\u003cbr\u003eDavid Lubar\u003cbr\u003eKate MacMillan\u003cbr\u003eKekla Magoon\u003cbr\u003eJim Murphy\u003cbr\u003eElizabeth Partridge\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarc Aronson \u003c\/b\u003eis the author and editor of many titles for young people, including \u003ci\u003eWar Is: Soldiers, Survivors, and Storytellers Talk about War, \u003c\/i\u003eco-edited by Patty Campbell, and \u003ci\u003eMaster of Deceit: J.
