Publisher Description
Set in 1969, the story chronicles one year in the life of the author.
Fresh out of high school, he travels to south Florida with his father to work in the booming construction business.
He is soon swept up in the late sixties’ world of sex, drugs, and rock and roll.
Questioning his own values and the morals of those around him, our hero takes many paths on his journey to self-discovery.
Social unrest, racial injustice, the Vietnam War and the specter of recent assassinations are just some of the issues facing the youth of this era.
Throw in young love and the pitfalls that it brings and the story gets even more complicated.
Funny, insightful and sometimes heartbreaking, this is the age-old story of young versus old, ideals versus reality.
Told in a fresh, entertaining manner, the story will leave you anticipating a sequel.
Customer Reviews
Excellent read!
I really loved this book! It gave me more insight to an era I’m not all that familiar with and I found it very entertaining!!! Young men today have a lot more in common with the previous generation then I would have ever guessed. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever been a part of the “sex, drugs, and Rock n’ Roll” culture and even if country music is more your style, there is something in the book that everyone can relate to. Very well written and thought provoking. I look forward to seeing what comes next!! :)
Excellent book
