Prairie Power: Voices of 1960s Midwestern Student Protest. By Robbie Lieberman. (Columbia: University of Missouri Press, 2004. xviii, 264 pp. $44.95, ISBN 0-8262-1522-X.)

The past decade has seen an upsurge of scholarship on 1960s student protest and campus cultural ferment far beyond the radical hotbeds of the University of California at Berkeley and Columbia University. Indeed, no study of those vanguard campuses can compare to Doug Rossinow's brilliant history of the Texas New Left or to Beth Bailey's revealing history of the sexual revolution in Kansas. Robbie Lie-berman's oral history of midwestern student activism represents another step in 1960s historiography toward geographical diversity. Although at times it lacks a critical edge, Prairie Power is a must read for anyone interested in 1960s America. Lieberman explores that era's campus insurgency from the perspectives of national Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) leaders with midwestern roots, local student leaders, and rank-and-file activists from the University of Missouri, Southern Illinois University, and the University of Kansas.
