 From the escalating events of the Cold War to the unease surrounding Vietnam and the Watergate scandal, the period between 1960 and 1980 was one of the most tumultuous in American political history. The presidencies of John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter provide the backbone for this dramatic program that traces the major figures and events which impacted American life. From the Civil Rights Movement of the '60s through the Iranian hostage crisis of the late '70s, vivid archival footage and interviews with renowned experts provide students with a rich, detailed account of the political and social landscape of the time. Part of the United States History Origins to 2000 DVD Series. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online. |
