The year 1969 was pivotal for the baby boomers. Young and innocent, they were given the ultimate freedoms and were faced with growing up. This touching, hilarious memoir is the true story of a late sixties grand tour of Europe-a life-defining parable for those who remember and those who can live it only through the tales of others. With the gift of youth they saw, sensed, and savored the now laughably clear distinction between profit motive and greed, truth and propaganda, national interest and defense contractors, a lovely cloud of smoke and the smoke of napalm, and the phantoms of security and dangers of complacency and atrophy. Stoned to the gills and then some, these adventurers experienced life-and the counterculture of the late sixties-to the fullest. In an exciting narrative spanning the globe, readers are invited to embark on their own journey and rediscover this incredible time of self-discovery, love, and finding out what you were made of.
