Activist William Herrick chronicles his life of both conviction and disillusion--from the front lines of the Spanish Civil war, in and out of the Communist Party, to driving a tractor on a communal farm in Michigan, jumping the line as a hobo, organizing African American sharecroppers in Georgia, at work with Orson Welles, and immersed in his own writing. For those who like truth with a dash of wit, it's an exhilarating read. 24 illustrations.
