DESCRIPTION:"Subversives will shock even those who've become used to the national 
 security state and its excesses. ...Seth Rosenfeld restores the California 
 tradition of courageous muckraking of Lincoln Steffens, and the sharp 
 indictment of the powerful that we associate with Jack London." - Ishmael 
 Reed \n\nIn the mid-1960's, the F.B.I. was secretly involved with three 
 iconic figures... Ronald Reagan, the fierce but fragile radical Mario 
 Savio, and the liberal university president Clark Kerr. Subversives traces 
 these converging narratives, creating a dramatic and disturbing story of 
 FBI surveillance, illegal break-ins, infiltration, planted news stories, 
 poison-pen letters, and secret detention lists - all centered on the Free 
 Speech Movement at the University of California, Berkeley. Rosenfeld 
 vividly evokes the Berkeley of that era- its rising counterculture animated 
 by the civil rights movement, antiwar protests, such literary lights as 
 Allen Ginsberg, Ken Kesey, and Gary Snyder, plus rock-n-roll and drugs 
 galore.\n\n"Subversives is more than a documentary history-it has the 
 insight that comes  only with relentless reporting." -Lowell Bergman, 
 investigative journalist for The New York Times and Frontline\n\nSeth 
 Rosenfeld was for many years an investigative reporter for the San 
 Francisco Examiner and the San Francisco Chronicle where his article about 
 the Free Speech Movement won seven national awards. His articles have won 
 the George Polk Award and many other major journalism awards, plus a 
 special citation from Harvard University's Goldsmith Prize for 
 Investigative Reporting.\n\nRichard Wolinsky is a veteran host and producer 
 of Cover to Cover, Bookwaves on KPFA. \n\n$12 advance tickets::
