The age of great dreams : America in the 1960s /
In this absorbing new book, David Farber gives us the history of our collective and individual memories of the 1960s, the brilliant colors of revolt and rapture, of flames and raised fists, of napalm and tear gas, of people desperate to make history even as others fought fiercely to stop them.
