Description

Jerry Rubin is an icon of American counterculture. This book includes correspondence with Abbie Hoffman, Norman Mailer and John & Yoko; reveals bizarre interactions with the like of Allen Ginsberg and Bob Dylan, and features countless candid photos, personal diaries and lost newspaper clippings. Pat Thomas interviewed over 75 of Rubin's friends, foes and comrades for the book, and he explores the often-misunderstood relationship between Rubin and his partner in crime Abbie Hoffman, with new insights into their Yippie vs. Yuppie debates.
