Publisher's Synopsis
In late 1971 John Lennon left London and pop stardom behind and moved to New York City, eager to join a movement for social justice and an end to the Vietnam War. He was embraced by radicals, hippies and Yippies alike. Lennon was soon on the front lines of the antiwar movement, inspiring solidarity - and suspicion. The Walrus and the Elephants is told by the unlikely cast of friends, including feminist leader Gloria Steiem and legendary poet-activist John Sinclair. The book is a look back at that time and at the revolutionary John Lennon through the eyes of fellow fighters.
