Industry Reviews
"A powerful, surprising argument, never explicitly stated but implicitly clear, holding that the rebellions against the established order--which took their form in the civil-rights movement, the youth movement, the early stirrings of the women's movement and the middle class's changing self-definition through the 1960s--were inextricably linked."
Wall Street Journal - David M. Shribman (01/16/1998)

"Branch spins an intricate, seamless web of politics and personalities, ambition and imagination, triumph and tragedy."
Washington Post Book World - Jeff Shesol (01/25/1998)

"...[A] monumental historical resource..."
