How far would you go to stand by your conscience?
In 1969, the Vietnam War rages, and Bruce Wasser-a 20-year-old Princeton student-receives a draft lottery number that all but guarantees his conscription. While his classmates debate politics in ivy-covered halls, Bruce faces a harrowing reality: enlist, flee, or take a stand as a conscientious objector.
With his father gone and no clear guidance, Bruce wrestles with the weight of moral courage, personal integrity, and the cost of defying expectations. Will he fight in a war he cannot support, or risk alienation from his country, family, and future?
90 is a coming-of-age memoir that transports readers into the heart of a turbulent era, offering a deeply personal lens on the Vietnam War, the draft, and the quiet defiance of those who resisted. Thought-provoking and powerfully written, this book is a must-read for fans of historical memoirs, educator biographies, and true stories of moral courage.
Perfect for readers of Vietnam War biographies, coming-of-age memoirs, and historical accounts of moral resistance, 90 is a testament to the quiet power of standing by one's beliefs-no matter the cost.
