By James A Michener

Nowhere are the tragic implications of the gulf between young and old more evident than in the terrible events that took place during the first four days of May 1970 at Kent State. Those four days brought America to the brink of a precipice and in the final clash on Monday, left four students dead and nine wounded.

Now, in a dramatic day-by-day narrative, James A. Michener vividly re-creates that long weekend, illustrated with starting photographs-some never shown before-of the action, and packed with information gleaned from hundreds of tape-recorded interviews with eyewitnesses, radical leaders, citizens and officials of Kent-indeed, from everyone concerned with the tragedy.
