With faculty and alumni that included John Cage, Robert Creeley,
Merce Cunningham, Buckminster Fuller, Charles Olson, Josef and Anni
Albers, Paul Goodman, and Robert Rauschenberg, Black Mountain
College ranked among the most important artistic and intellectual
communities of the twentieth century. In his groundbreaking
history, Martin Duberman uses interviews, anecdotes, and research
to depict the relationships that made Black Mountain College what
it was. "Black Mountain "documents the college's twenty-three-year
tenure, from its most brilliant moments of self-reinvention to its
lowest moments of petty infighting. It records the financial
difficulties that beleaguered the community throughout its
existence and the determination it took to keep the college in
operation. Duberman creates a nuanced portrait of this community so
essential to the development of American arts and
counterculture.
