1968 was a pivotal year in the United States and worldwide. For baby boomers, it was particularly eventful as they were in the eye of the storm of the political and cultural changes that were rocking the nation. Contributors to this book were asked look back to that year and write down their remembrances. Though mostly west-coast stories, when viewed as a whole, they provide an intimate and moving description of what typical "kids" went through in 1968, stories that could have just as well come from anywhere in the country.
