In Beyond Our Vision: Stories from the Decade That Changed Everything, author A. E. Perkins examines some of the memories that escaped the headlines of history.

​

The years that connected the booming 1950s to the tragic 1960s included the advent of space exploration, the evolution of the American Civil Rights Movement, and the violent death of a popular President. But those events were but a few of a wide range of happenings hardly spoken of today.

Indonesian essayist and activist Asep Kambali said, “History is the link of the future.” Beyond Our Vision uncovers some of the stories that acted as links connecting the post-World War II past to the 21st century.
