Every year brings an anniversary of an event in American history - some trivial, others seismic.
2018 marked a half-century since a year that was full of seismic events – 1968. From the assassinations of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., was a polar-opposite bookend to the optimism and hope that signaled the start of the 60s with the inauguration of President John F. Kennedy.
This remarkable decade has been summed up in Frye Gaillard’s new book, “A Hard Rain: America in the 1960s – Our Lost Decade of Hope, Possibility and Innocence Lost,” which was published in August on the anniversary of the 1968 convention.
