Peaceniks. Stoners. Tree huggers. Freaks. For many, the hippies of
the 1960s and early 1970 were immoral, drug-crazed kids too spoiled
to work and too selfish to embrace the American way of life. But
who were these longhaired dissenters bent on peace, love and
equality? What did they believe? What did they want? Are their
values still relevant today? Bringing together the personal
accounts and perspectives of 54 "old hippies", this book
illustrates how their lives and outlooks have changed over the past
five decades. Their collective narrative invites readers to reach
their own conclusions about the often misunderstood movement of
ordinary young people who faced an era of escalating war, civil
turmoil and political assassinations with faith in humanity and a
belief in the power of ideas.
