Kovics impassioned, timely memoir about the American Veterans Movement picks up where Born on the Fourth of July leaves off.[A] compelling snapshot of early 1970s activism. . . . Without social media or cell phones to boost the signal, it was Kovics flair for the dramatic and ability to marshal reporters that turned the protest into a battle victory. . . . Kovics updates on the fates of his fellow veterans provide a memorable and bittersweet conclusion. Publishers WeeklyIn the spring of 1974, as the last American troops were being pulled out of Vietnam, Ron Kovic and a small group of other severely injured veterans in a California VA hospital launched the American Veterans Movement. In a phenomenal feat of political organizing, Kovic corralled his fellow AVM members into staging a sitin, and then a hunger strike, in the Los Angeles office of Senator Alan Cranston, demanding better treatment of injured and disabled veterans.This was a shortlived and chaotic but ultimately successful movement to improve the deplorable conditions in VA hospitals across the country. Hurricane Street is their storyone that resonates deeply todaytold by Kovic in the passionate and brutally honest style that led to over one million sales of Born on the Fourth of July.
