Title: Stand and be counted : making music, making history : the dramatic story of the artists and causes that changed America
Description: "For more than thirty years, musician David Crosby has been one of rock 'n' roll's most outspoken voices for social change. In Stand and Be Counted, he and coauthor David Bender recount the stories of the artists who made a difference and the passionate convictions that moved them.

Crosby's personal participation and his friendships with many of the artists involved give readers a behind-the-scenes look at events from the civil rights marches and antiwar moratoriums of the sixties, to the antinuclear events of the seventies, to Live Aid and the Amnesty International events of the eighties - right up to the Tibetan Freedom concerts of today.".

"This story includes new interviews with such diverse artists as Harry Belafonte, Whoopi Goldberg, Adam Yauch, Phil Collins, Robin Williams, Eddie Vedder, Joan Baez, and Jimmy Buffett."--BOOK JACKET.
