None. Lots of factual and date errors. Also lots of points of view that, while opinions, are decidedly bizarre, such as stating that Bob Dylan lacks any talent. On the one hand he lauds John Lennon for criticizing a part of the Students for a Democratic Society for praising Mao, on the other hand he calls Lennon "snarly." The book makes some valid points about other 60's characters, but over-makes its case. Lots of factual and date errors.

Provides a somewhat funny alternative overview of a tumultuous decade. no reviews | add a review
