From flower power to radical politics - a history of the mindbending sixties from someone who was there and does remember it! PROMISE OF A DREAM vibrantly captures the explosive feeling of the era: from sexual liberation to CND demonstrations, student occupations to underground publications. Rowbotham is faithful to the exhilaration, hope and enthusiasm of the 60s but wryly humorous about a younger self frequently in and out of love, dithering between principle and vanity. Author of the bestselling A CENTURY OF WOMEN and other classic texts of feminist history, this is a moving, witty and surprising memoir from a historian who has turned her insides out to reflect on herself as evidence.
