One of twenty-three books selected for inclusion on the "Forbidden Bookshelf". 968 pages. Footnotes. Index. Black and white photographic plates. "Prentice-Hall drastically slashed its print run and advertising budget, despite the book's having met its advance sales target and won wide acceptance in reviews across the country. The almost immediate (and reportedly unprecedented) cancellation by BOMC (Book of the Month Club) of a book under such circumstances would have a chilling impact on most publishers, and Prentice-Hall was no exception. They allowed the book to go out of stock while demand for it remained high, and ultimately let it go out of print altogether." - Foreword. The above was discovered only after the author took Du Pont and Prentice-Hall to federal court. "I have tried, with admittedly humble resources, to explain what the Du Ponts and their extraordinary history mean for American society, its past and its future." - Foreword.

1968140947056New York: The Pacifist Anarchist Bisexual Psychedelic Conspiracy 1968. Four original 8.5 x 11" single-sided leaflets on various colors of paper by a student group calling itself The Pacifist Anarchist Bisexual Psychedelic Conspiracy which displayed a punky insouciance that was ten years ahead of its time. One titled "Fuck You Punk Freshmen" envisions the first-year students as the oppressed masses who get a talking-to from the group and advice to "smoke dope. gethigh.high." and "ORGASM." Another leaflet is dated in the then-future October 2001 and lists a bunch of abbreviations of radical groups at the time starting with S.D.S. All but the "Freshmen" leaflet are in Near Fine condition; that one shows creases from being folded in eighths. Rare fanciful concrete poetry-influenced and sometimes obtuse protest art from the height of the 1960s at Columbia University. [The Pacifist Anarchist Bisexual Psychedelic Conspiracy] unknown
