Woodstock A New Look

A powerful nation locked in a long war they seemingly cannot win. Public belief in their government at an all-time low, and perhaps even a failed Presidency. Woodstock has come to mean all that, and more, and a new retrospective - written by someone who helped build the festival - is nothing if not timely. With never-before-seen photos that have been locked away for nearly four decades, Woodstock: A New Look is a book that people who were there will want to help them remember. Readers too young to have been there will want it to help them understand how we got from there to here. "Woodstock has become a potent legend of freedom and empowerment, the likes of which we will probably never see again. The nearly half a million people who battled traffic, rain, mud and other hardships to attend discovered how strong they could be, and the event remains a testament to the power of music to educate and enlighten as well as to entertain." - John Gregory WalterWalter, Gregory J. is the author of 'Woodstock A New Look', published 2007 under ISBN 9781594111341 and ISBN 1594111340.
