All the Difference is a riveting memoir about a conservative naval
officer about to navigate marines to Vietnam who had an epiphany of
conscience at Berkeley. A judge ordered Dan when five to leave his
mother and live with his Dad, a naval officer who molds him for the
military. A number of luminous childhood moments reveal that his
Mom and Grandmother "Ruthie" planted seeds in Dan that were bound
to sprout later. He began an intense reading campaign determined to
find gratifying work that would motivate him for the rest of his
life. The book is filled with creative images the writer developed
from his love of nature, and powerful experiences, both deadly and
humorous. The author places himself in real scenes in all his
vulnerability as he faces conflicts, romance, and adventures that
challenge his wits, strength, and determination. He finally
rejected his father's plan for his life and found the "road less
traveled." Inspired to battle for civil rights, Dan becomes an ACLU
attorney for Cesar Chavez's farm workers against some of America's
most powerful forces. He shares illuminating experiences involving
successes and failures while going from a military pawn to a
champion for the poor and powerless, finally able to make a
difference in many lives including his own.
