Recenzii
“A good history of the importance of war in American Song from prerevolution up to today. Flies in the face of the contemporary folklore that protest music has disappeared from the American landscape. The book shows that bubbling under today’s mainstream is a wealth of topical songs, speaking to all aspects of war and peace.”
—Country Joe McDonald
“Ron Cohen and Will Kaufman capture the dazzling cultural outpouring at the heart of every progressive social movement. They chronicle the soundtrack that rings through the American story right from the start: the spirit of democracy, the inspirations of liberty, and the harmonies of peace. Singing for Peace overflows with emotional richness and humanity, illuminates the dark spaces of war and injustice, and lights a path toward peace and freedom. Pick up Singing for Peace and connect with the sweet rhythm of resistance.”
—Bill Ayers, author of Public Enemy: Confessions of an American Dissident
