Phil Bennett is on page 219 of 340 of American Hipster: A Life of Herbert Huncke, The Times Square Hustler Who Inspired the Beat Movement
Really fleshes out the character of Huncke who could have been left as a cartoon junky if you only read the Beat novels. Very interesting so far.

Phil Bennett is reading Mad as Hell: The Crisis of the 1970s and the Rise of the Populist Right
Fantastic and very readable account of the USA in the 1970. A lot more engaging than I was expecting from the somewhat dry title. Recommended.

Constantly fascinating and entertaining. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in 1970s Britain or UK social history in general.
