Where Have All the Hippies Gone

Where Have All the Hippies Gone Once a hippie, always a hippie, if you know what hippie means. Some of us are recounted in film, some in books, especially as interest swells about communal living. Hippie means more than floral, feathered or beaded accessory.

This account takes readers through the formation, fiascos and phenomenon of personal and collective ripening in the late 60's and 70's. What are the components that support the growth of a wandering, inexperienced young woman to find her place and so her identity as an older woman?

Some of us are still kickin'.
