Gosse, one of the foremost historians of the American postwar left,
has crafted an engaging and concise synthetic history of the varied
movements and organizations that have been placed under the broad
umbrella known as the New Left. As one reader notes, gosse 'has
accomplished something difficult and rare, if not altogether
unique, in providing a studied and moving account of the full array
of protest movements - from civil rights and Black Power, to
student and antiwar protest, to women's and gay liberation, to
Native American, Asian American, and Puerto Rican activism - that
defined the American sixties as an era of powerfully transformative
rebellions...His is a 'big-tent' view that shows just how rich and
varied 1960s protest was.' In contrast to most other accounts of
this subject, the SDS and white male radicals are taken out of the
center of the story and placed more toward its margins. A
prestigious project from a highly respected historian, The New Left
in the United States, 1955-1975 will be a must-read for anyone
interested in American politics of the postwar era.
