* 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.
