In a stunning parallel to our own times, Surviving: A Kent State Memoir, explores the coming of age of a young adult.

In an era as divisive as today’s, Patty witnesses one of the events that became a turning point in public sentiment toward the War in Vietnam. On May 4, 1970, Ohio National Guardsmen fired on students at Kent State, protesting the invasion of Cambodia and the Vietnam War. They left four dead and nine injured. Standing thirty yards in front of the Guard when fired, Patty’s story is one of survival.
