Groovin'

<p><strong>"What a fun romp!" </strong></p><p><strong>"Drugs free love broken hearts and road trips aplenty"</strong></p><p><strong>"Easy to read and hard to put down!"</strong></p><p>In this delightful coming-of-age memoir Rich Israel takes off on a journey of self-discovery during the late 1960s. Eschewing societal norms he hitchhikes across the country tries his hand at mining works at a circus and rides a horse hundreds of miles through the Rocky Mountain wilderness--all the while the draft and Vietnam War are nipping at his heels.<br /><br />Join Rich and his canine companion Charlie as they encounter one colorful character after another from a rifle-toting hippie to a loudmouthed carnival boss to a sultry flower child whose bewitching powers lead to lust and longing—and heartbreak. A consummate storyteller Rich peppers his writing with wit and sensitivity as well as insights often revealed through mind-blowing acid trips.<br /><br />If you were there during this unique period in American history <em>Groovin'</em> is certain to spark treasured memories. If not you will get to enjoy the flavor and exhilaration associated with catching that phenomenal wave.</p>
