"Matt Warshauer's conceptual insight, his deep research, and his judicious narrative will be invaluable to the reading public, to students in formal study, and to his fellow academics. His grasp of the history of the period is self-evident...; what strikes me, and I suspect may strike you as well, is the originality of his argument in terms of the psychological development of a whole generation of Americans. In this I was reminded of Robert Coles's landmark work on the psychological impact of the civil-rights struggle on those who undertook the nonviolent dismantling of Jim Crow. I think Matt's work may well rank in that very rarified company."
