Abbie Hoffman's Steal This Book!

By Jack Brummet, '60's Ed.

I loved Abbie Hoffman's first book when I was young. Thumbing through it now, through the filter of years, I still admire its indulgent, subversive anarchy. Well, someone has really stolen it, or at least placed it online (there is no difference, is there?). I bought the book twice. The first time, of course. . .someone stole it. I found this book online because bannination.com listed it with the caption "Dirty hippies give tips to unemployable bankers on how to survive in meltdown economy."

There is a lot of good stuff, and plenty of silly, indulgent, and even dangerous stuff here. Maybe you had to have "been there," I'm not sure! Click here to Steal This Book,
