L.A. was a launchpad for Black Powerwhere Malcolm X and Angela Davis first came to prominence and the Watts uprising shook the nationand home to the Chicano walkouts and Moratorium, as well as birthplace of Asian America as a political identity, base of the antiwar movement, and of course, centre of California counterculture.Mike Davis and Jon Wiener provide the first comprehensive movement history of L.A. in the sixties, drawing on extensive archival research, scores of interviews with principal figures of the 1960s movements, and personal histories (both Davis and Wiener are native Los Angelenos). Following on from Daviss award-winning L.A. history, City of Quartz, Set the Night on Fire is a fascinating historical corrective, delivered in scintillating and fiercely elegant prose. A magisterial, kaleidoscopic, riveting movement history of Los Angeles in the sixties. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
