Book Reviews of The Sixties: Years of Hope, Days of Rage

Book Review: A magical return to my youth
Summary: 5 Stars

Mr. Gitlin's position as head of SDS in the 60's puts him in a unique position to write a cultural history of those turbulent times. As a college student in the late Sixties, reading this text took me back to the days of protests, love-ins and the best music ever recorded. Quite simply I found it a moving, magical, refreshing experience.
