Howard Flomberg lived through the best and the worst of life as he stumbled through the sixties. He started his trip through life as a physically abused child. He got involved in the civil rights movement. He joined the folk movement in Greenwich Village and eventually wound up defending his life in Southeast Asia. This book is about survival. While this conversationally written book is an easy read it does have its gut-wrenching moments. It's well worth the read. May 2013
