This is a story about the generation that learned to "duck and cover," saw its older brothers fight - and sometimes die - in a distant war, experienced three political assassinations and became the focal point of dramatic social change. This historical fiction follows the journey of an ensemble of students as they navigate the turbulent 1960s toward their graduation from a rural Maryland high school. The Class of '70's journey is told through a series of vignettes covering the decade's most memorable events: The Cuban Missile Crisis, the JFK assassination, Beatlemania, Muhammed Ali, the civil rights movement, the Maryland campaign of segregationist George Wallace, the emergence of Spiro Agnew, the war in Vietnam, and man's first steps on the Moon. It also focuses on the very personal interactions, both humorous and sorrowful, that punctuate the lives of young men and women as they journey toward becoming adults.
