A decade ago Remiro was a typical American teen-ager, born of a working-cass Catholic family, restless but unambitious. Now he is an urban guerrilla, a soldier of the Symbionese Liberation Army. ***The story of this startling transformation is the background to the inside account of the S.L.A. and its incredible day-to-day existence. The story of Remiro is also the history of two escaped black prisoners, Donald DeFreze (Cinque) and Thero Wheeler, and of the other S.L.A. members who came to world-wide notice in the kidnapping of Patty Hearst. ***Remiro is now in prison, charged with the murder of the black school superintendent Marcus Foster. A few years ago he was one of those Vietnam vets who returned as a psychologically scarred witness of organized and patriotically sanctified barbarism. He plunged into the Haight-Ashbury drug scene of the late '60s and proceeded to blow what was left of his mind. Then he got caught up in Berkeley political militancy, where the poetry of adolescent rebellion exhilaratingly combined with old-fashioned leftists politics. ***This Solder Still At War finds the beginning of the S.L.A. in these seedbeds, particularly in the drive for prison reform. It explains how the S.L.A. members were recruited and trained, and how their political philosophy came to be contained in such extraordinary documents as the Symbionese "Constitution" and "Codes of War". It tells of the revolutionary propaganda coup of the century, the Patty Hearst kidnapping, which overnight transformed a totally obscure little terrorist group into the most notorious band of revolutionists America has ever seen. ***It follows the sequence of events that culminated in the massacre of six S.L.A. members - immolated, under siege, in a holocaust of police fire. ***With the death of six of the S.L.A. members died a certain naive and misinformed belief of the "movement" of the late '60s, that simple if awful acts of individual revolt can change a massive industrial society. With them died the vestiges of a dream that we can each take history in our own hands. ***This Soldier Still At War is not just the story of Joe Remiro or of the S.L.A. It is also, terribly, part of the story of America in our time.' (Quote from inside front and rear of dustwrapper blurb). ***First impression of the true first edition.
