Ginny and Montana are students caught-up in campus turmoil at the
University of California, Berkeley, during the 1960s nation-wide
era of dissent. It is a story of social misfits, troubled people
scared in a dysfunctional childhood who drift together in the cause
celebre of the moment -- and there are plenty of causes for them to
find: anti-authority sit-ins anti-Vietnam War marches draft card
burnings Vatican Two church revolt civil rights turmoil grapepicker
strike underground Weatherman martial law - street barricades Ginny
and Montana and their fellow students had all these things on their
plate -- on and off campus. Ginny becomes the activist leader of
the violent Weatherman organization and goes underground as a
fugitive from the FBI. Now, fifty years later, it is difficult to
believe but many in our nation were engaged in an almost open
revolt. Names of people are fictional, but all the events are
exactly as they happened. I know, because I was there.
