More About the Author
Product Description
Synopsis
Created in 1966 in California, The Brotherhood of Eternal Love had a membership of 750 and was held responsible for widely distributing LSD in the US. The police described it as a "hippie mafia" and the counter-culture talked softly of a secretive, mystical band whose motives were idealistic. Eventually, The Brotherhood came to symbolize the rise of LSD,the growth of the psychedelic movement and the heady, optimistic, revolutionary, energized days of the 1960s. When this book was first released in 1984, it became a bestseller, and later on, a much sought after cult classic changing hands for hundred of dollars . Now updated and containing new chapters, "The Brotherhood of Eternal Love" tells the story of a group of idealists fascinated by the potential of LSD to improve the quality of man's life. In doing so, we go back to a time in which Youth seemed about to conquer the world with rock n' roll for its battle hymns and slogans for a manifesto.

Format:Paperback
This is a well written and factual insight on a piece of modern history which has at it's core a little known but fascinating story from the 60's countercultre. Well researched and written in a engaging style this is a book that is a cut above other books on this subject. A great story and a great book.
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The Brotherhood of Eternal Love are one of the great names of the psychedelic 60s and 70s but relatively little was known about them until this book. It doesn't tell the whole story, and gets some facts wrong, but it's a brave attempt and adds substantially to the background of the last period when the world seemed about to change. It didn't but there you go!
