Review: The story of Ken Keasey and the Merry Pranksters... - Probably one of the best books I have ever read.
Review: Not only a great read but also a great reference work of the era - Where did the saying "You're either on the bus or you're off the bus" come from ? Who were the real people in Kerouac's On The Road ? How did The Grateful Dead create such awesome sounds ? What did the Pranksters think about their meeting with The Hell's Angels ? (Hunter Thompson reported it in his book of the same name - this gives the other side of the same story) How did The Beatles come up with the idea for their Magical Mystery Tour ? The answer to these and many more questions about the acid culture of the 60s (when it was a lot safer to pop a tab) can be found in this great read. Highly recommended for anyone who was around at the time and can't remember much about it - also recommended for those who can remember and want a great trip down memory lane.
