Book Reviews of The Movement and The Sixties: Protest in America from Greensboro to Wounded Knee

Book Review: A great narrative history of the Sixties.
Summary: 5 Stars

Anderson's book is a great narrative account of that most legendary of decades, the Sixties. He does a good job of identifying the various strands that made up Sixties culture, strands which are often lumped together by people today who have but a hazy notion of what really went on. The book is full of great anecdotes and supported by loads of primary sources. Read this book and check to see if this is how you remember it!
