DESCRIPTION:New York Times bestselling author David Talbot and New Yorker journalist 
 Margaret Talbot illuminate “America’s second revolutionary 
 generation” in this gripping history of one of the most dynamic eras of 
 the twentieth century—brought to life through seven defining radical 
 moments that offer vibrant parallels and lessons for today.  \n\nThe 
 political landscape of the 1960s and 1970s was perhaps one of the most 
 tumultuous in America’s history, shaped by the fight for civil rights, 
 women’s liberation, Black power, and the end to the Vietnam War. In many 
 ways, this second American revolution was a belated fulfillment of the 
 betrayed promises of the first, striving to extend the full protections of 
 the Bill of Rights to non-white, non-male, non-elite Americans excluded by 
 the nation’s founders.\n\nBased on exclusive interviews, original 
 documents, and archival research, By the Light of Burning Dreams explores 
 critical moments in the lives of a diverse cast of iconoclastic leaders of 
 the twentieth century radical movement: Bobby Seale of the Black Panthers; 
 Heather Booth and the Jane Collective, the first underground feminist 
 abortion clinic; Vietnam War peace activists Tom Hayden and Jane Fonda; 
 Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta and the United Farm Workers; Craig Rodwell and 
 the Gay Pride movement; Dennis Banks, Madonna Thunder Hawk, Russell Means 
 and the warriors of Wounded Knee; and John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s politics 
 of stardom. Margaret and David Talbot reveal the epiphanies that galvanized 
 these modern revolutionaries and created unexpected connections and 
 alliances between individual movements and across race, class, and gender 
 divides.  \nAmerica is still absorbing—and reacting against—the 
 revolutionary forces of this tumultuous period. The change these leaders 
 enacted demanded much of American society and the human imagination. By the 
 Light of Burning Dreams is an immersive and compelling narrative of seven 
 lighting rods of change and the generation that engraved itself in American 
 history—and set the stage for those today, fighting to bend forward the 
 arc of American history.\n\nTicketed event. One ticket with purchase of the 
 book.\nBuy the book at our Online Shop\nor call 415 431 6800 during regular
