John Froines’ Recommended Reading List

By popular request, here’s the books that WC can recall being listed on John Froines suggested reading list for aspiring subversives, c. March 1969.

Rachel Carson, Silent Spring

R. D. Laing, The Politics of Experience

Thomas Kuhn, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

Abbie Hoffman, Revolution for the Hell of It

Paul Ehrlich, The Population Bomb

James Watson and Francis Crick,  The Double Helix

Ernesto Che Guevera, Che Guevera

L. Eldridge Cleaver, Soul on Ice

Ralph Nader, Unsafe at Any Speed

Those are the ones that WC can remember. The list was eclectic and reflected the issues of the time. The full list was single-spaced, covered a whole page and is long since lost.
