Had I managed to get this dang book out when it was scheduled, I might have beaten the boomlet of seventies studies. Stayin' Alive is now in the swim, destined for various omnibus reviews like this one by Mark Schmitt in the American Prospect: “When It All Went Wrong.” He calls it "the most enjoyable of the three books" under review, which is nice, but these types of reviews (and I've written a lot of 'em) tend not to go very deep into any single book. I have only myself to blame.
And, truth be told, I haven't sat down with any of the seventies books out this year. I'll discuss Judith Stein's Pivotal Decade when I get the time and courage to see what I missed in my own book.
