In his classic work, Modern Times, historian Paul Johnson titled his chapter on the Sixties, “America’s Suicide Attempt.” He saw that decade as a near implosion of American culture, due partly to a war between the generations.
In this second episode of Fran’s new series, “There And Back Again: A Hippie’s Tale,” he paints a vivid family portrait of Middle America after it had enjoyed its vacation from war during the Eisenhower era of the Fifties. James Dean’s classic film title, “Rebel Without a Cause” seemed to have expired by the end of the Sixties as America found that it was at war with itself. And the Church, it seemed, was more bound to the flag than the Cross.
