The Making of an Elder Culture: Reflections on the Future of America's Most Audacious Generation
In 1989, Theodore Roszak published The Making of the Counter Culture, a book which introduced to the world the Woodstock generation, the summer of love and the summer of political protest. In his latest book The Making of an Elder Culture: Reflections on the Future of America's Most Audacious Generation. Roszak revisits the generation he defined 40 years ago. This is definitely not a whimsical look at the mad-cap excesses of the hippie generation or a nostalgic visit to the first heady days of sex drugs and rock and roll. The author focuses on the formidable strengths of the baby boomer generation, reminds us of the significant accomplishments of our youth and challenges us to again take up the good fight.
