内容説明

A vital resource for those interested in learning about this era, ""The 1970s"" chronicles a time of change and adjustment for the United States. From the rippling aftereffects of the Vietnam War to the civil unrest between the Arabs and the Israelis in the Middle East, this volume explores a period of great uncertainty for the United States and the world. Coverage includes the resignation of President Richard Nixon and his involvement with the Watergate scandal, the deep distrust in the government by the American people, and President Jimmy Carter's struggle against a demoralized society and his failure to pick up the pieces left behind. This volume also documents the many U.S. advancements in space exploration, women's rights, nuclear treaties, provocative literature, and artful movies. In a single, illuminating reference, ""The 1970s"" provides a unique look at this decade. ""The 1970s"", a new volume in Facts On File's acclaimed ""Eyewitness History"" series, provides hundreds of firsthand accounts of the decade - from diary entries, letters, speeches, and newspaper accounts - that illustrate how historical events appeared to those who lived through them. In addition to the firsthand accounts, each illustrated chapter also provides an introductory essay and a chronology of events. The book will also include critical documents related to this decade, as well as capsule biographies of key figures, a bibliography, an index, 98 black-and-white photographs and illustrations, and 12 maps and graphs.
