My early life in pictures. I don't think one is going to find a better visual representation of the Beat turn into the Hippies era than this book. I should know, because I was there. My father rarely went out of the house without his camera. It's odd of course to see this book in a very handsomely designed edition (by Lorrane Wild) and put together by her and Kristine McKenna.
