The British Underground Press of the Sixties
In 1966 Barry Miles and John 'Hoppy' Hopkins decided to start a newspaper. They called it International Times and launched it in April. It was the first British underground newspaper, and began a news media revolution. This catalogue accompanies the exhibition of the same name and displays the covers of every British underground paper that launched in the 1960s: 'International Times', 'Oz', 'Friends/Frendz', 'Gandalf's Garden', 'Black Dwarf' and 'Ink'. It also includes the comic books that grew out of the papers, and various examples of the graphics, ads, posters and flyers produced by each publication.

Kunstler, and Markos Moulitsas, founder of the Daily Kos, along with an introductory essay by Ken Wachsberger.

His goal is to capture the essence of "the countercultural community." A fundamental resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of a dramatic era in U.S. history.
The Paper Revolutionaries
Rock festivals. Be-ins. Revolutionary conventions. Street scenes. Demonstrations. This is a witty, irreverent book about the rise and development of the underground press, the Movement and the hippie capitalist system that keeps some of it going. Written with a subtle humor and elegance, enhanced by graphics and pages taken from the actual newspapers, The Paper Revolutionaries examines the multi-million dollar enterprise that has become the powerful voice of an angry, assertive generation of young people.
