Talk:List of skinhead books

Criteria for adding books

edit

Before adding a book to this list, please keep in mind that it has to be about, or somehow related to the skinhead subculture. Books about politics — whether right, left, racist, anti-racist, or something in between — only belong here if they actually have something to do with actual skinheads.

There should be some clarification remarks about "A Clockwork Orange", because it it's not exactly a "skinhead book", and it's inclusion without a note is slightly misleading. If someone goes and buys this book looking for skinheads, they will be confused and/or disappointed. There are no skinheads in or even mentioned in the book, or the film. Just because some skinheads later had an affinity for the book and the look of the droogs in the film version doesn't make it a "skinhead book", at least, not without some qualifications noted.?? --24.1.12.223 (talk) 02:25, 7 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Removed Dancing with Skinheads

edit

I removed Dancing w/Skinheads & Other Bible Study Topics because -- despite having the word skinheads in the title, it barely even discusses skinheads in the book. Skinheads are only mentioned in the first few paragraphs, and it says nothing substantial about the skinhead subculture. Here is a link to read the whole book so you can see what I mean: http://steiger.org/2008/download/dacingwithskinheads.pdf The book is really about a Christian rock band and their travels in Europe.
