Why read it?
1 author picked Hippie Chick as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A book that satisfies your voyeurism over one of the most exciting times in recent history, without the risk:

It was a wild time of experimentation and reckless behavior, by an author who ended up, ironically, as a family counsellor.
From Rita's list on the Vietnam War era by women writers.
