Notes from Underground: Zines and the Politics of Alternative Culture

In a comprehensive study of zine publishing, Stephen Duncombe describes zine origins in early 20th-century science fiction cults, their more proximate roots in the sixties' counter-culture and their rapid proliferation in the wake of punk rock. Packed with extracts and illustrations from a wide array of publications, past and present, this is the first book to explore the full range of zine culture. 50 illus. 288 pp.
