Synopsis
A driving force behind the social revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, Hoffman inspired a generation to challenge the status quo. Meant as a practical guide for the aspiring hippie, Steal This Book captures Hoffman’s puckish tone and became a cult classic with over 200,000 copies sold. Outrageously illustrated by R. Crumb, it nevertheless conveys a serious message to all would-be revolutionaries: You don’t have to take it anymore. “All Power to the Imagination was his credo. Abbie was the best.” — Studs Terkel

Abbie Hoffman Should Have Stolen a Brain.by Chicago-Mike
Reader Rating:

March 30, 2009: This book was every bit the crap I thought it would be. Just another America loathing liberal hypocrite who wants to take from the deserving rich and give to the lazy, undeserving poor. Nothing in the book that espouses picking yourself up by the bootstraps and make something of yourself. No, it's filled with advice on how to "screw" the man, without ever stopping to consider that we the people ARE the man. If you follow his advice, you'll be screwing yourself. What a wasted life he led.
