Kyana Woodstock

<p>What if one backyard party could map the beating heart of Rock 'n' Roll-and the history of peace and love it powered? KYANA WOODSTOCK: One More Day of Peace and Music is a memoir that turns a generation's soundtrack into a lived practice.</p><p></p><p>We inherit slogans-Peace Love Music-but often lose the messy human funny contradictory stories that gave them meaning.

Part 2 chronicles 24 years of Kyana Woodstock the backyard festival that began with 14 friends and a TV grew to live bands and fireworks and leapt to the Lincoln Amphitheatre-interwoven with candid Sideroads archival invites and articles from the Ministry of Propaganda and nods to The Game of LIFE. Expect an unbuttoned respectful voice-even on politics and faith-and an epilogue dreaming toward 2044.</p><p></p><p>Andrew Verkamp is a classic Rock 'n' Roll child of the '60s and a veteran transformation leader who has guided 87 businesses through culture change-part Clark Kent part super-hippie. A husband father and grandfather he finally lets the hidden author loose in his first book.</p><p></p><p>Open these pages for One More Day of Peace and Music-and find your own way back to the life you want to sing.</p>
