For the Hell of It the Life and Times of Abbie Hoffman
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Univ of California Pr
- Publish date: 05/01/1998
"As much a corrective to a New Left history of the time as a biography of Abbie Hoffman, the wildest of the wildmen.... Raskin's book is arranged like a series of filmed calendar pages; behind the pages stand descriptions as vivid as movies of the formative influences moving with lightning speed across those few amazing years while Abbie, and the rhetoric inside him, grew apace". -- Vivian Gornick, The Nation
"Hoffman remains one of the most vivid figures in an era that specialized in them.... It would be very hard to read his life's story and not be affected by it". -- Jonathan Yardley, Washington Post
"(A) thicket of information about Hoffman's life and milieu.... Raskin provides not just a finely detailed story about an engaging, if flawed character but the valuable materials for larger lessons". -- Jonathan Rieder, New York Times Book Review
