About This Item
Carbondale, Illinois: Self Published, 1971. (158) pages. Quite scarce-- WorldCat locates copies in only 12 libraries. The book is an exposé of the attempt to establish what the author perceived to be a CIA front group on the campus of Southern Illinois University. Protests against the Center in large part led to rioting that resulted in the cancellation of classes and the temporary closing of the SIU campus in may 1970. The book is profusely illustrated with photographs of people involved in the Center for Vietnamese Studies. The book is clean and tight, with some minor smearing of lettering on the front cover. There are some tiny cuts in margins of half of the pages--apparently caused by the binding process--they are relatively unobtrusive.. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good +. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Book.
