Beskrivning
This is a broad history of the various reform and radical groups of the 1960s who went under the name of the Movement. It demonstrates what profound influence the Movement had upon the period and the reasons why it fragmented and disappeared in the late 1960s and early 1970s. This is the first major interpretative history of this subject.

Recensioner i media
"Terry Anderson has written the best book yet on the broad protest movement that dominated American life in the 1960s. Unlike earlier writers, who focus on elites or just one group, he offers a kaleidoscopic view that stresses the grass-roots involvement of American youth as they challenged both the politics and the values of their elders in a frontal assault on the established Cold War culture. It is a tour de force."--Robert A. Divine, George W. Littlefield Professor in American History, University of Texas at Austin
