"If Steal This Book is Abbie Hoffman's guide to living outside the establishment, Revolution for the Hell of It is a chronicle of his radical escapades that still offers lessons for today's activists." "Hoffman pioneered the use of humor, theater, and surprise to change the world for the better. In Revolution for the Hell of It he gives firsthand accounts of his legendary adventures, from the activism that led up to the founding of the Youth International Party (or "Yippies!") to the 1968 Democratic National Convention protests ("a perfect mess"). Also chronicled is the mass antiwar demonstration he helped lead in which over 50,000 people levitated the Pentagon using psychic energy and the time he dropped handfuls of dollar bills onto the floor of the New York Stock Exchange and watched the traders scramble. With antiwar sentiment once again on the rise and an incendiary political climate not seen since the book's original printing, Abbie Hoffman's voice is more essential than ever."--BOOK JACKET.Hoffman, Abbie is the author of 'Revolution for the Hell of It: The Book That Earned Abbie Hoffman a 5 Year Prison Term at the Chicago Conspiracy Trial - Abbie Hoffman - Library Binding - REPRINT' with ISBN 9781568492933 and ISBN 1568492936.
