The Octopus Conspiracy: And Other Vignettes of the Counterculture--From Hippies to High Times to Hip-Hop & Beyond . . . Hardcover - 2005

by Steven Hager; Foreword by Paul Krassner; Afterword by Kris Millegan


From the publisher

From the birth of hip-hop culture in the South Bronx to the influence of nightclubs in shaping the modern art world in New York, a generation of countercultural events and icons are brought to life in this personal account of the life and experiences of a former investigative reporter and editor of High Times. Evidence from cutting-edge conspiracy research including the real story behind the JFK assassination and the Franklin Savings and Loan cover-up is presented. Quirky personalities and compelling snapshots of life in the 1980s and 1990s emerge in this collection of vignettes from a landmark figure in journalism.
