This is the story of the sexual revolution in a small university town in the quintessential heartland state of Kansas. Bypassing oft-told tales of radicals and revolutionaries on the coasts, Bailey argues that the revolution was forged in towns and cities alike, as "ordinary" people struggled over boundaries of sexual behavior in postwar America.
