Beskrivelse

This is the full-color edition of 1968: A Year of War and Uncertainty. In 1968, journalist couple John Hlavacek and Pegge Parker Hlavacek traveled the world to bring us the real stories from a year of social, political and cultural upheaval unlike any other year in the 20th Century. That year, we saw the first live televised pictures from outer space, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Bobby Kennedy assassinated, and live anti-war protests in the States, while the Hlavaceks were covering the Tet Offensive and the Vietnam War, environmental science in Antarctica, and huge shifts in the cultures, powers and social norms across the World. Live television had made its debut across the globe, and the world watched and reacted with amazement, awe and sometimes horror. From all corners of the world, the Hlavaceks worked tirelessly to file a story each day with small Omaha station KMTV, and weekly print columns. But the highlights were with John's inventive, courageous, and tenacious aim to connect our soldiers in Vietnam with their families back in the states. Through raw footage, photos, journals, letters and the articles published about their travels, John has assembled a truly unique and historic look at one of the most influential years in our history.
