Beschreibung:
Richard Kempton is a retired librarian living in Los Angeles. He lived in Amsterdam in the early 60s, and came to Provo in 1965 when his Dutch wife wrote a paper on Provo Speech for a class. Her interest inspired him to write this book because he couldn't find one to read.
Presents an English-language study of Holland's legendary insurrectional movement. This book narrates the rise and fall of Provo from early Dutch "Happenings" staged in 1962, to the so-called "Death of Provo" in 1967, including Grootveld's anarchist anti-cancer campaigns, the riots against Princess Beatrix's marriage to an ex-Nazi, and more.
