Drawing from numerous interviews with participants--including the author himself--this investigation explores the social, cultural, and historical contexts of the times, discussing the developments and dilemmas that had the most impact on the group. Contributing to the history of this fascinating period and its events, this document also touches on the political veterans who influenced it, including the notorious Gerry Healy and T. Dan Smith.
