NATIONAL BESTSELLER - "In this highly opinionated and highly readable history, Kurlansky makes a case for why 1968 has lasting relevance in the United States and around the world."--Dan Rather

To some, 1968 was the year of sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Yet it was also the year of the Martin Luther King, Jr., and Bobby Kennedy assassinations; the riots at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago; Prague Spring; the antiwar movement and the Tet Offensive; Black Power; the generation gap; avant-garde theater; the upsurge of the women's movement; and the beginning of the end for the Soviet Union.

In this monumental book, Mark Kurlansky brings to teeming life the cultural and political history of that pivotal year, when television's influence on global events first became apparent, and spontaneous uprisings occurred simultaneously around the world. Encompassing the diverse realms of youth and music, politics and war, economics and the media, 1968 shows how twelve volatile months transformed who we were as a people--and led us to where we are today.

Will Last Forever
Size: One Size, Color: Black (Bifold), Size: One Size, Color: Black (Bifold)
I’m writing this review after owning the wallet for about two years. I will only buy Carhartt wallets after the first one I had about 8 years ago, and this wallet is a prime example of why. It is the most durable wallet on the market. It is minimalist, but attractive. The best part is that it is made of high quality leather that develops a nice patina over time and looks even better with age in my opinion. It’s the perfect thickness to stay together for years without undue wear, and soft enough to be maneuvered easily, even with pre-arthritic fingers. This wallet is the best value for the money because it will last forever. I’ve owned 2, but only because I lost one.

Toughness & Durability that Carhartt is known for.
Size: One Size, Color: Carhartt Brown (Bifold)
This wallet is working out very nicely. It is comfortable and fits many cards without feeling bulky. I would buy again. Of course, it has the typical toughness/durability that Carhartt is known for and it matches my backpack. :)

Top Class Watch
Color: sliver band blue face-G5885G
I really love this watch, its very bright in the night, it was very easy to set the time on it, I also love the weight of this watch, it's definitely of top class quality, thankfully I didn't need the tool to adjust the band because it fit perfectly fine, plus the quartz system is working quite well, hasn't missed a second since I set it. Time keeping is amazing. Overall, I love this watch so much, I'm thinking of buying the black face one as I bought the blue face one.
