OUTSTANDING REFERENCE SOURCES
The 2010 LIST OF TITLES
The May 2010 issue of BOOKLIST cites AMERICAN COUNTERCULTURES as one of its 2010 Outstanding References Sources, compiled by the Reference Sources Committee, Collection Development and Evaluation Selection, ALA References and User Services Association.
American Countercultures: An Encyclopedia of Nonconformists, Alternative Lifestyles, and Radical Ideas in U.S. History. 3 v. Edited by Gina Misiroglu. Shapre Reference. The term countercultures may call the 1960s to mind, but this set shows that unconventional values and practices have been knit into the fabric of U.S. history since its beginning.
