The paper revolutionaries

by Lawrence Leamer, Lawrence leamer, Laurence Leamer

Rock festivals. Be-ins. Revolutionary conventions. Street scenes. Demonstrations. This is a witty, irreverent book about the rise and development of the underground press, the Movement and the hippie capitalist system that keeps some of it going. Written with a subtle humor and elegance, enhanced by graphics and pages taken from the actual newspapers, The Paper Revolutionaries examines the multi-million dollar enterprise that has become the powerful voice of an angry, assertive generation of young people.
