THE FIFTIES
AN UNDERGROUND HISTORY

OUT NOW FROM SIMON & SCHUSTER

“Compassionate and insightful…Gaines provides essential historical context and vividly captures the resilience of these and other 'authentic rebels' who battled the FBI, McCarthyism, the medical industry, and the Ku Klux Klan 'in a time infamous for rewarding conformity and suppressing dissent.' This revisionist history is packed with insights.” — Publishers Weekly
