The story of our growing awareness and understanding of the environmental crisis and emergence, during the 1960's and '70's. Witness the seeds of a revolution in Earth Days, hailed as "spectacular", "fascinating" and "a beautifully composed tribute to visionary thinking and political ingenuity"(NYTimes). Earth Days traces the development of the modern environmental movement from its post-war rumblings in the 1950s to the first wildly successful 1970 Earth Day celebration and the subsequent firestorm of political action to reveal an engaging history of the revolutionary achievements-—and missed opportunities-—of groundbreaking eco-activism.
