An anthology of primary documents from the sixties that brings together representative writings from that period, many of which have been unavilable for years or have never been reprinted.
Orphaned at sixteen, Karl Russel keeps a journal of his inner life during the chaotic sixties in the United States, and on to the political terrorism of Rio de Janeiro and its "invisible" population of the disfigured.
Traces the events, trends, politics, and important people of the 1960s, including lifestyles, fashion, arts and entertainment, sports, environmental issues, and technology.
