WAVING A SUNFLOWER AT FDR -- This childhood prank by the author is one of many lively recollections in this photo-studded account of a family history extending back to the American Revolution. Growing up during the Great Depression on Meridian Street, the book's title, he recounts an award-winning newspaper and Washington career during which he was eyewitness to important political and historic events of the past six decades, including the enactment of monumental civil rights legislation, the Vietnam War turmoil, the Watergate era and the Saturday night massacre, the Kent State killings, the chaotic Boston school desegregation, and the Wounded Knee conflict.
About 17 city blocks comprise the North Meridian Street Historic District as recognized by the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. The Meridian Street corridor has housed Indiana's governors, innovators in business and medicine, barons of industry, celebrities, and darlings of the arts and literature, as well as folks of local, national, and international importance, boasting names like Charles W. Fairbanks, Dan Quayle, Mike Pence, J.K. Lilly, Arthur Newby, Booth Tarkington, and Rev. Howard Cadle. Many Meridian residents were integral in shaping the Indianapolis known today.
25th ANNIVERSARY EDITION • From the bestselling author of The Passenger and the Pulitzer Prize–winning novel The Road: an epic novel of the violence and depravity that attended America's westward expansion, brilliantly subverting the conventions of the Western novel and the mythology of the Wild West.

Look for Cormac McCarthy's latest bestselling novels, The Passenger and Stella Maris.
