Hippie by Barry Miles
Between the years 1965 and 1971 something happened to make the world on one side of that divide all but unrecognizable to the world on the other side. For better or for worse (it very much depends on whom you ask), those seven years revolutionized western and eventually global — culture as utterly as any of the great turning points in our history. What happened were the hippies defined by virtually everything so-called straight society was not.
Hippie combines hundreds of photographs, a fascinating narrative highlighting all the social and cultural upheavals of the time, as well as quotations from many of the people — Ken Kesey, Timothy Leary, Grace Slick, George Harrison, Wavy Gravy, and many others — who lived through and shaped the counter culture. Proceeding year by year, it gives an unprecedented degree of shape and coherence to a time that by its nature is kaleidoscopically bewildering.

The Hippie Dictionary: A Cultural Encyclopedia of the 1960s and 1970s
by John Bassett McCleary, Joan Jeffers McCleary (Editor)
This idiosyncratic and comprehensive compendium of hippie culture captures the attitudes, goals, and key events of the movement along with its colorful cast of characters.
McCleary's A-to-Z listings includes political figures, civil rights leaders, pro- and anti-war activists, rock and roll stars, feminists, and gurus, as well as the wealth of slang that distinguished the truly hip from the forever square.:-) The author is an unabashed admirer of the period, and his keen observations create a lively portrait of an America in transition.720 pages
