ISBN: 9780195066678.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBerkeley, California stood at the center of the political, social, and cultural upheaval that made the 1960s a unique period in American history. In Berkeley at War, W.J. Rorabaugh, who attended the graduate school of the University of California at Berkeley in the 1970s, presents a lively, informative account of the events that changed forever what had once been a quiet, conservative white suburb.\nRorabaughs meticulously researched, authoritative narrative covers the entire period, from the rise of the Free Speech Movement to the growth and increasing militance of a black community struggling to end segregation; from the emergence of radicalism and the anti-war movement to the blossoming \"hippie\" culture; and from the explosive conflict over Peoples Park to the beginnings of modern-day feminism and environmentalism. An invaluable account of its time and place, Berkeley at War anchors the sixties in American history, both before and since that colorful decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44426506043445,"sku":"ByrdShop_0195066677","price":27.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780195066678_6577beb0-74e2-40d7-a31f-0f5673e5e359.jpg?v=1778677423","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/berkeley-at-war-the-1960s-9780195066678","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
