About this ebook
“Honest and funny, passionate and contrite, meticulously researched and deeply philosophical: an essential document on the ’60s.”
—Washington Post
Mark Rudd, former ’60s radical student leader and onetime fugitive member of the notorious Weather Underground, tells his compelling and engrossing story for the first time in Underground. The chairman of the SDS and leader of the 1968 student uprising at Columbia University, Rudd offers a gripping narrative of his political awakening and fugitive life during one of the most influential periods in modern U.S. history.
