While the beginning and the peak of the Sixties counter-cultural and political activist Movements are well documented, the post-peak and the last years are nearly always neglected (or even denied to have existed in terms of being a real part of the Movement). In fact, it is very popular with most publications to end with 1969, usually with the Altamont rock festival and the Charles Manson family killings in December. In this book the author shows that this disregard for the events of the 1970s distorts the Sixties era, resulting in a peculiar predicament of often ending the Sixties storyline shortly after discussing its peak at the Woodstock festival. The significance is that many years of the Sixties era are excluded. Indeed, one of the major contributions of this book is to reassemble this greatly neglected part of history, the forgotten years of 1970 to 1976, and to show that, as every time period has a beginning and a build-up, it too must also have a true decline and an end.
