Days of Rage: America's Radical Underground, the FBI, and the Forgotten Age of Revolutionary Violence
Comprehensive. Readers can count on Brian Burrough to be thorough when he tackles a topic, and in his book titled, Days of Rage: America's Radical Underground, the FBI, and the Forgotten Age of Revolutionary Violence, he uses over six hundred pages to present the results of many years of immersion in the homegrown terrorism that spread across America during the 1970s. In addition to reams of archival material, his interviews with individuals who have not spoken to others about the actions of that period came as a result of the years Burrough spent building trust. Whether groups like the Student Nonviolence Coordinating Commmittee, Students for a Democratic Society, Weatherman, FALN and the Symbionese Liberation Army are familiar to you or not, by reading this book you will learn about something that happened in the United States a few decades ago that is rarely mentioned today.
Rating: Four-star (I like it)
