Grand Expectations The United States 1945-1974 by James T. Patterson weaves the political, cultural, and economic events of the period into a superb portrait of America. It was an era of unforgettable events. From Korea to McCarthyism, the death of the Kennedy's and Martin Luther King Jr., the Vietnam War Watergate and so much more. The amazing growth post World War Two, the baby boom, and soaring spirits took America into the next era of war, dissent and change. The book also takes readers through the Civil Rights movement. From Little Rock to Birmingham, and the growing demand for human rights for Hispanics, women and Blacks, the book takes readers through unmatched achievement and devastating tragedy. It is extensively illustrated with vintage photos and drawings.
