About this title

Review:

"The level of detail in the book is just right, not getting in the way of narrative momentum, yet providing plenty for students to chew on. Overall, in terms of coverage and analytic bite, the book is the best--I'm tempted to say the only--choice for teachers seeking a work on the sixties."
