<p><strong>&quot;Haldane&#39;s storytelling is rapid fact-packed devoid of filler (and) heavy on action.&quot; &ndash;<em>Long Beach Press Telegram</em></strong></p><p>Like many baby boomers David Haldane got swept into the turbulence of the late 1960s and early &#39;70s first as a radical activist and then a writer for an underground newspaper. Eventually after self-imposed exiles in Europe and Mexico he married started a family and graduated to a significant position in mainstream journalism from which he chronicled many of the events that shaped an era. But Haldane always longed for something more a &quot;green leafy space&quot; in which he could feel at peace. Finally after a painful divorce he found it in an unconventional way; with a dark-haired woman met on the Internet and wooed on the exotic islands of the Philippines. <em>Nazis and Nudists</em> is a series of poignant - and sometimes humorous - essays recounting that long journey. It is a story of love lost and love found. More importantly it is about the lifelong spiritual quest for a place to call home.</p>
