Steal This Book Trial

Abbie Hoffman asked Tom Forcade to help edit "Steal This Book," but the two disagreed about the editing. After Forcade was fired from the project, he wanted to get paid $5,000 for the work he'd done. Rex Weiner suggested a counterculture trial as the best means of settling the dispute. Forcade would go on to create High Times magazine three years later.
