The author was elected president of Students for a Democratic Society in 1963, and he brings an insider's perspective to bear on the turbulent whirl of political, social, and sexual rebellion we now call "the sixties." Gitlin does a nice job of integrating his first-person recollections with a broader history that ranges from the roots of 1960s revolt in 1950s affluence and complacency to the movement's apocalyptic collapse in the early 1970s--a victim of its own excesses as well as governmental persecution. His lucid summary of the complex strands that intertwined to form the counterculture is essential basic reading for those who don't know the difference between the Diggers and the Yippies. --Wendy Smith
Book Description
Say "the Sixties" and the images start coming, images of a time when all authority was defied and millions of young Americans thought they could change the world--either through music, drugs, and universal love or by "putting their bodies on the line" against injustice and war.
Todd Gitlin, the highly regarded writer, media critic, and professor of sociology at the University of California, Berkeley, has written an authoritative and compelling account of this supercharged decade--a decade he helped shape as an early president of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and an organizer of the first national demonstration against the Vietnam war. Part critical history, part personal memoir, part celebration, and part meditation, this critically acclaimed work resurrects a generation on all its glory and tragedy.

A memoir from a 60's revolutionary .......2007-07-27
This was required reading for a graduate course in American history. Todd Gitlin's "The Sixties: Years of Hope and Days of Rage" is Gitlin's first hand account of the revolutionary air surround the 1960's. Gitlin was the president of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) until 1969. Through his book Gitlin is able to describe the feelings of social unrest and dissatisfaction among baby boomers during the 1960's. Gitlin recounts the inner workings of the SDS organization and the political infighting and offshoots which developed as some members became more radical and others became more conservative.
Gitlin's title, "Years of Hope and Days of Rage" exemplify the feelings of America's college students and generation of young adults during the 1960's. Gitlin describes the 1950's as a drab and unremarkable time when Americans were content to be materialistic and conformist. Although there were some poets, musicians, writers, and philosophers who were making headway towards social rebellion, in Gitlin's opinion, the 1950's were characterized by America's "genial deadhead" president Dwight Eisenhower.
Gitlin describes some of the inspirational figures and their contributions which began in the 1950's. He attributes much of the intellectual beginnings of rebellion to the "Beat" culture of the 1950's. Inspirational figures like James Dean and Marlon Brando in teen dramas like "Rebel Without a Cause" exemplified dissatisfied youth in the post World War II era. Jack Kerouac's poetry challenged the politics of the Cold War and made appeals for civil rights for Affican Americans. Rock n' Roll music with its African American beats and became a way for youth to rebel against their parents. An interesting insight which Gitlin contributes is the invention of MAD magazine and its contribution to the counterculture of the late 1960's Gitlin describes how MAD was one of the few publications which lampooned both mainstream culture and counterculture. In a time when people were scared by anything which was deemed to be unproductive to society or subversive, MAD magazine provided a sense of humor to the Gitlin describes his interest in politics had begun with his first year as a Harvard undergraduate, the Cuban Missile Crisis was the spark which began many of the first college campus demonstrations. Gitlin and other "New Left" students were aghast at the idea of nuclear war being waged over Cuba. They believed that the Kennedy administration had pushed the Soviets too far towards nuclear war and that Kennedy should take a softer approach towards U.S.-Soviet relations. Unwilling to engage in nuclear war at any cost, "New Left" activists were determined to change America's political and social landscape.
Students of the New Left believed that America was too materialistic, racist, and militaristic and did not follow the principle of free speech. Gitlin describes that the New Left activists were disenfranchised by the "old liberals" and new dealers who did not have the political will to demand civil rights for African Americans and defend the rights of American communists against anti-communist conservatives. Although the election of John Kennedy had signaled the arrival of a new generation of liberal politicians, New Left activists disagreed with Kennedy's policies towards the Soviet Union and Communist containment overseas.
Gitlin's book describes the feelings which he and others felt during the 1960's. Those who had lived through the Great Depression and the World War II were content with the new wave of goods and security which the 1950's had to offer. Many for the first time had the money and resources to enroll their children in college. Gitlin claims that his generation was not content with the hypocrisy of the U.S. government's policies towards segregation and free speech. Baby boomers had been raised to believe in the ideals of the constitution and the bill of rights however, they felt that these principles were not being practiced.
Gitlin joined the SDS in 1963 and became their president shortly after joining. The SDS became heavily involved in protests for civil rights on college campuses as well as joining African American activist's demonstrations in U.S. Southern states. The SDS engaged in public debates, demonstrations and marches for civil rights and against the Vietnam War. The SDS participated in famous demonstrations at the University of California Berkley and the infamous Democratic National Convention demonstration in Chicago.
During the late 1960's, the SDS began descending into disagreement and criticism from within their own organization. Some SDS members wanted to use violence in their demonstrations; this was criticized by Gitlin and others as being too radical. The lingering question of whether or not to profess support for Soviet and Maoist style communism was raised. Some believed that the North Vietnamese and the Vietcong should be forgiven for their acts of violence against the Vietnamese people because they were committing these acts as a response to American aggression. Gitlin and others believed that it was hypocritical to not hold U.S. leaders and Vietnamese leaders to the same morale standards. Eventually, the SDS disbanded in early 1970 after different leaders of SDS offshoots like the weathermen began participating in bombings and other violent demonstrations against military and other installations.
Gitlin ends his book by describing the events which followed the disintegration of the SDS. Gitlin signals the disbanding of the SDS as the end of the true 1960's revolutionary spirit. SDS members and other revolutionaries became tired of the political infighting and the lack of cooperation from government representatives. According to Gitlin these former revolutionaries embraced new ideals and new forms of spirituality and were diluted in the popularity of the hippie movement during the early 1970's. Gitlin claims that the rising popularity of Buddhism and new religious sects like the Hare Krishnas showed that many were losing faith in the movement and were turning to a higher power or spirituality to cope.
Gitlin criticizes the absurdity of some of the radical movements which came from the late 1960's as being crazy and farcical. Gitlin gives the examples of Patti Hurst's kidnapping by the Symbionese Liberation Army and the activities of Charles Manson's group. The use of drugs became recreational rather than a tool for philosophical and spiritual experimentation. In the end the radical movements which were aimed at changing America as a whole was broken up into single issue interest groups. Feminists, Black Power activists and anti-Vietnam demonstrators focused on their own issues of interest rather than focusing their efforts into a national movement of progress.
Recommended reading for anyone interested in American history.
gitlin.......2006-12-06
THE 1960's in some respects was a decade like any other: a fixed span of time filled with otherwise disparate events. But ''The Sixties'' also came to mean something more: a style, a mood, a spirit of youthful rebelliousness with its own marketable aura of excess, adventure and innocent, shoot-for-the-moon idealism. Once that spirit was spent, as Todd Gitlin writes in ''The Sixties,'' a compelling new firsthand account of the era, the decade quickly ''receded into haze and myth,'' leaving behind only a few ''lingering images of nobility and violence,'' of charismatic martyrs and mobs in the street, ''a collage of fragments scooped together as if a whole decade took place in an instant.'' Today when pundits debate a possible resurrection of the 60's, they usually have in mind a superficially similar pastiche of trends, from paisleyed fashion and renewed evidence of dissent on campus to well-publicized displays of political conscience by popular rock stars.
Mr. Gitlin's ambitious effort to cut through the nostalgia and myth surrounding the 60's takes an unusual form. Working, as he puts it, ''at the edge of history and autobiography,'' he has written a wide-ranging narrative that oscillates between the first and third person, incorporating both new research on key episodes and potted histories of folk-rock music, hippies, the origins of the women's movement and so forth.
What is important in the book - and what makes it required reading for anyone who wants to grasp the youthful spirit of the time - is the author's highly personal chronicle of the rise and violent collapse of the New Left. Without false sentimentality, he re-creates the political odyssey of the radicals of his generation, as well as his own role in that odyssey.
The New Left from Inside by Not a Searching Account.......2004-10-04
The Sixties is a vivid account of a turbulent era by one of the leaders of the "New Left" who played an important role in the anti-war movement. The book's qualities and flaws both flow from the author's knowledge that Gitlen has of many pivotal events and personalities that give the bok its intimacy but also lead him to hold the leaders of the New Left less culpable for some of the negative aspects of the era than a writer with a broader perspective might. In general, Gitlin portrays much of the radicalism of the anti-war movement and the New Left as a loss of innocence rather than a dedicated plan to accomplish the goals of the Old Left - "participatory democracy" or radical egalitarianism drawn from Marx while distancing themselves from Stalinism and identification with the Soviet Union. Gitlin covers the origina of the New Left, the Civil Rights movement and the development of Black radicalism, the growth of the women's movement and the sexual revolution, the joining of the radical left and the counterculture and the collision of these elements with the "silent majority" of more conservative Americans that made the era so tumultuous.
Useful, but not to be regarded as an introductory text.......2004-08-24
In writings about the 1960s in the US, Gitlin offers the reader a rare combination of both the perspective of a major player in the New Left at that time, and as an astude political commentator in his own right. There are, however, deficiencies in regarding the text as a good academic history of the period, as other reviewers have noted.
My particular research, and reason for reading this book, relates to the demise of SDS, and in discussing this, Gitlin frequently talks in greater detail about personalities rather than abstract, but vital, political fact. Indeed, on several occasions the author goes as far as to declare his personal dislike for several of the Weatherman leaders on the grounds of their political differences. Certainly not the stuff of academic surveys.
Perhaps best taken and used as a well-written and historically precarious yet valuable biography, rather than as some kind of definitive text of the 60s. Contains full notes and index, but no bibliographic essay.
Gitlan sets the standard.......2004-05-17
In Gitlan's "Years of Hope, Days of Rage" Todd Gitlan set the standard for analysis of the Sixties and the Sixties Generation. His view, though from the perspective of an SDS leader, speaks to a much broader audience, and generates the first book of its kind on the movement era generation.
A seminal work of classic dimenstions, Gitlan captures the essance and essentials of what it meant to grow up in the Sixites. The life and times, the fever and excitement. He does himself a disservice though in not broadening the discussion to race relations which engineered the velocity of the movement and determined its cutting edge.

Smokey and some history are always a great combination.......2006-09-12
I've been reading about Smokey Dalton ever since Nelscott published "A Dangerous Road". Her use of history to set the scenes of her books is remarkable; I applaud her ability to make the sub-cultures of the cities where her books take place real.
Smokey, an African-American man with an adopted son, tries to stay "below the radar" (my phrase, I think) while he navigates the changing culture of the 60's. Historical fact is used (the assination of MLK, the Chicago 8...). This basis in fact is used to tell the story of a p.i. (unlicensed) who is trying to raise an adopted son in these turbulent times. He also happens to come into contact with many of the events of these times.
With that basis, Nelscott then creates an intriguing mystery that keeps you turning the pages. I found the historical background fascinating (yes, I did google a bit just to see what was true).
This time, Smokey is checking out a building that is empty now that the caretaker has died. He finds human skeletons in the basement. Being Smokey, and because he owes it to the owner of the building, he must find out what happened, amidst the real life trial of the "Chicago Eight". I couldn't quit reading.
Those of us who are old enough to remember the "Chicago Eight" will appreciate this viewpoint of that time. Those who are younger, well, not all is true (by that I mean that Smokey is a fictional character) but... a lot of the culture, and people of that time are indeed real.
A great read with a bit of history to boot.
A mystery steeped in colorful settings and rich characters.......2006-05-20
DAYS OF RAGE, Kris Nelscott's sixth Smokey Dalton mystery, provides the reader with a story full of hidden secrets and discovery. African-American PI Smokey Dalton and his adopted son Jimmy are back in Chicago again. It is 1969 and the city is humming with the buzz over the trial of the Chicago Eight, charged with inciting the riot at the '68 Democratic National Convention. Smokey and Jimmy have their own secret. Jimmy witnessed the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. in Memphis, and Smokey has vowed to protect him. To keep Jimmy safe, Smokey is operating as a building inspector under an assumed name.
Laura Hathaway is battling the corporate world in her new role as Sturdy Investments CEO. Now that Laura has taken over for her deceased father, will the old men who worked for him try to undermine her position? Yes. Laura begins looking into Sturdy's long history of illegal business practices, and her path crosses with Smokey again when she hires him to inspect a building that she now owns. With Smokey back in Chicago, will their on-again off-again relationship be on again?
As Smokey goes through the building to look at repairs and maintenance, he comes across a suspicious wall in the basement. He investigates and finds the remains of one body, and then two more. Is this a potential crime scene? Laura hires Wayne LeDoux as a forensic criminalist to help Smokey with the discovery at the house. Smokey enlists the aid of Tim Minton from a local funeral home as well.
The men disguise themselves as painters and home repairmen who have been hired to fix up the house. Each bricked-up place in the basement uncovers more bodies. Has Laura's father been involved in more than just illegal business dealings? Murder? What is the real history of this building? Its inhabitants?
Smokey begins his investigation with the first set of skeletons. His research leads him to Chicago in 1919. He is able to identify the three bodies and discovers the men were interconnected with a city teeming with gambling dens and bordellos. It is a time of race riots, bombings, and the beginning of prohibition. Al Capone is setting up his organization. While Smokey is looking into Chicago's colorful and corrupt past, he is living with the tribulations of the current Chicago trial, the Illinois Black Panthers under Fred Hampton and the protests of the Vietnam War. How do this building and the many victims found in it connect to today's world? As Smokey uncovers more about the building and its previous owner, including a former brick and mortar layer, he realizes that the property has been a dumping ground for the police since before Laura's father owned the building. Smokey puts the last pieces of the puzzle together, hoping that he will arrive in time as the story reaches its terrifying end.
Kris Nelscott's DAYS OF RAGE is the mystery that readers always look for --- one steeped in colorful settings and rich characters. The quest for justice becomes entangled in the history and culture of Chicago, the modern city with a complicated past, as age-old secrets are unlocked. As the mystery unfolds against the backdrop of Chicago entering the Roaring Twenties, the characters present their own timeless qualities in the social and political turbulence of the 1960s.

terrific late 1960s historical whodunit .......2006-04-04
In 1969 Chicago is a dived city as the Chicago Eight stand trial. Businesswoman Laura Hathaway asks her sometimes lover black Smokey Dalton to investigate what happened to a now empty Queen Anne house that her father questionably purchased years ago and sublet into apartments. After filling up with tenants, over the years, the occupants dwindled until the only resident left was its manager Mortimer Hanley, who recently died.
Not sure why Laura needs him to investigate the building, Smokey move slowly from room to room seeing nothing out of the ordinary. That is nothing until he enters the basement. It is bricked up with numerous rooms; inside of each are corpses. Laura hires criminologist Wayne LeDoux and funeral director Tim Minton to learn what happened and to take care of the bodies respectively. None of the men or their female patron realizes how deep and deadly racism cuts society, though Smokey for instance has been a victim, with skeletons taking them back to a 1919 riot.
The latest Smoky Dalton late 1960s historical whodunit is a terrific entry in what is one of the best on going mystery series. The backdrop brings to life an era of protest through the powerful cast. The story line provides some insight into Laura's background, especially the criminal activities of her late father. However, the strong thriller belongs to the investigation into the bones that Smokey uncovers as readers obtain a historiographic look from a 1968 perspective to lethal DAYS OF RAGE four dead decades earlier.

Book Description
"The more I make love, the more I want revolution; the more I make revolution, the more I want to make love." In Paris, in May of 1968, revolution, and love are very much in the air. The barricades are going up, the students of the Sorbonne are taking to streets alive with the graffiti of revolt, and the Odeon is ablaze with speechmaking.
For Annie, a young American painter, and Julian, her Portuguese lover, a banker and anarchist, the events of that Paris spring form the backdrop against which their love affair is played. Annie sees the world through an artist's eyes; she is reckless in her passions, wanting and needing love with other people. There is none of this fanciful nonsense for Julian, an anarchist disdainful of the entire human race, who thinks even the enragé students storming the streets of Paris with there posters proclaiming "open the windows of your heart" and "revolution is the ectsasy of history" to be hopelessly naïve and sheeplike. Ferlinghetti charts the progress of love unfolding against those heady and momentous days when the pampered children of the bourgeoisie tried to find common cause with workers who despised them, "when Julian and Annie were in the heat of their love and reason."
Love in the Days of Rage is a work of lyricism and commitment, painting and politics, passion and intellect-a work to set beside the great expatriate novels of earlier generations.

Book Description
Every night it seems on our news screens, we are confronted with the conflict in the Middle East, and especially with the core conflict at the heart of so much trouble in that region, that between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
As with many conflicts that the viewing public only really sees for a few minutes each week, the Israelis' and the Palestinians' war is poorly understood. While we are kept up to date with the latest incidents, the background to this war is rarely explored. In other words, we often only see the tip of the iceberg. But what makes people blow themselves up? And blow up civilians and soldiers too? What do they want, the Israelis and the Palestinians.
This book covers the current Intifada, then covers the major points of conflict since Israel was founded including the 1948 "Catastrophe", as Palestinians refer to the war that left even today over three million refugees, 1967 when Israel occupied the West Bank and Gaza, 1973 and the War of Yom:Kippur. The death of Yasser Arafat and the 2005 elections in the Palestinian Authority, won by Abu Mazen and the recent victory in general elections by Hamas, are also covered.
The Israeli Palestine conflict is one David Pratt knows well. Foreign Editor of Scotland's Sunday Herald, David also spent the best part of twenty years covering Afghanistan back to the days of the Soviet occupation.
He's seen it, been there, through all its highs and lows, and even had a brief encounter and a cup of tea with Mr. bin Laden himself in a trench during fighting around Jalalabad. It was Pratt who first broke the story of Saddam's hideout being initially discovered by the Kurds, a story that went around the world. David Pratt is also a documentary film-maker of some renown and covered the Balkan Wars of the early 90s with distinction. Most recently, his harrowing accounts of the "Coup that Never Was" in Haiti were syndicated around the world.

An antidote to the usual blinkered reporting.......2007-07-29
I feel fortunate to have stumbled upon this book via the Frontline Club's website. It's certainly unlikely I would ever have heard about it in the American press. Any book that dares to convey a bit of human sympathy for the plight of the Palestinians seems to be strangled at birth, lest it arouse the inexhaustible ire of the various pro-Israel lobbies. And that's a shame, especially in the case of Pratt's book, which is an excellent, highly readable first-person account of his years reporting the Intifada. I came away with a clearer understanding of the dynamics within the Palestinian factions than I have ever gotten in years of listening to US media blather.
Pratt is very honest about his feelings for the Palestinians, but he also writes moving accounts of suicide bombings carried out against Israelis. His sympathies are with the victims on both sides. He reports the unwarranted violence of Israeli soldiers and the devastating effects of Israeli policies as he observed them. If what he has to report does not flatter the Israeli government, that is not his fault.
Pratt has written a very fine book here, a book worth reading and talking about with anyone interested in the issue--which ought to include just about everybody, given the present wildly unstable situation in the region.
Blind: Watching the Israel-Palestine eye-for-an-eye tragedy unfold.......2007-07-17
I am reading David Pratt's new book Intifada: The Long Day of Rage. Believe it or not, Pratt was THERE -- on the scene, on the spot -- for almost every single incident, battle, retribution, escalation and attack that the Israelis staged against the Palestinians during both the First Intifada and the Second Intifada. And Pratt was also there during almost ever single incident, battle, retribution, escalation and attack that the Palestinians staged against the Israelis as well.
With heart-stopping accuracy and literary GENIUS, Pratt makes his readers think and feel as if they too were there during every single moment of every bloody event. Amazing.
And after I finished the book, what did I learn? That's a no-brainer. That the crazy and irresponsible eye-for-an-eye escalation of this conflict has led -- tragically, needlessly, unnecessarily -- to the terrible end wherein both sides are now blind. Do you hear me? Morally, financially, personally and physically. Blind. What a waste.
Buy this book. Read it and weep. And then work in whatever way you can to stop the escalation of violence and war. Why? Because Israelis and Palestinians have clearly demonstrated for all the world to see -- and Pratt has recorded it -- what happens when violence, revenge and retribution guides one's policies. Everyone loses. There are no winners in this terrible game -- only survivors with no vision.
PS: Pratt just e-mailed me, stating that his book has just been given a terrible review on Amazon.com and asking for help from readers to give this amazingly wonderful and accurate (and riveting!) book some well-deserved thumbs up.
Biased, poorly written, and sloppily edited.......2007-07-14
I can't really complain about the bias of the book, it comes with the territory, but the fact that the book pretends to be impartial and balanced is somewhat annoying. It is much better to admit your views and prejudices outright than to feign innocence and mislead people into thinking there is only one way to view the situation.
However, being a critical reader, this is not even the main objection I have to the book. there are far more fundamental problems here. Forget the controversial stuff, let's talk about simple math:
Pratt states the intifada broke out in 1987 following "a 35-year Israeli military occupation"(pg 21), but Israel had only gained control of the Palestinian territories in 1967 - which would make it 20 years.
Pratt discusses a pamphlet put out by the Israeli government just before the start of the intifada (again, 1987), "Marking 27 years since the 1967 war"(pg. 22). 1967 plus 27 equals 1994, not 1987.
Most infuriating is the description of a 2001 suicide bombing in Netanya as "the first time ever that the ticking bombs had struck outside the occupied territories and inside the borders of the Jewish state itself."(pg. 109). This is a gross misstatement as Pratt fails to mention the suicide bombing campaigns of the nineties, which struck in places like Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Ramat Gan, Afula, Hadera, and Tiberias. If he gets such basic facts wrong, how can we trust anything else he writes?
I don't know if these mistakes are the result of an inherent bias or faulty research. I would guess it's the latter, since there are many other indications that this book does not adhere to the strictest of publishing guidelines. Aside from multiple typos and the gaudy cover, Pratt's writing style is a clear indication that the editor was either asleep at his post, or non-existent. For most of the book Pratt sticks to a strict journalistic reportage, which is slightly dull, but at least manages to convey the facts (or those he chooses to include, anyway). In other places, however, Pratt slips into a vague almost-purple prose, which is administered with a heavy hand at moments that should, by his logic, have an emotional effect on us. The result is an uneven and heavy book by turns didactic and melodramatic. Skip this one, Read Joe Sacco's Palestine instead. Though it only deals with the first intifada, it presents a much more interesting and clear picture.
