Paula Stone Tucker’s first book Surviving: A Kent State Memoir is available on Amazon.com today in both paperback and Kindle format.

It’s the story of a sheltered young woman who learns to stand up for herself as she survives the May 4, 1970, Kent State massacre, her family’s eccentricities, and the unexpected death of her young husband.

If you liked Educated or Hillbilly Elegy, this is the book for you.

Part of the proceeds are being donated to the May 4 Visitors Center at Kent State University.

Paula was a State Desk reporter in the early 70s, covering the nether regions of Medina and Wayne counties.
