Society is becoming increasingly complex and competitive. So much
so that now, more than ever a education with advanced learning is
required to establish a decent living wage. So the "rat race"
begins younger and it is more intense. As a result there are so
many distractions, justifications and manipulations in society
which causes us to lose sight of what our priorities should be as
Christians. Our time is imposed upon now more than ever before. The
moral guideline is continually blurred and the principles which
govern "capitalism" are becoming drastically different from the
principles which govern Christianity. This book is written to help
the reader re-calibrate their priorities and understand their
Christian objectives in a way that empowers, refreshes and renews
them. For where there is great confusion those who have great
clarity rise to positions of influence.
On the road in England 1971... 'I began to desire a compass and
almost bought one, but realized at the last minute that it was the
concept I was enamoured with, not the artefact.' A very English
Kerouac set to a 'Withnail & I' scale, this book is based upon
the author's personal experiences in the summer of 1971. Bill
Booker wakes up to the fact that he's a lonely stranger amongst his
so-called friends and, spurred on by the need to sort his head out,
he sets off on a journey accompanied by some new friends, roving
from place to place, wandering through his memories, dreams and
reflections, cadging cigarettes from strangers, soaring upon
hallucinogenic wings, devouring egg and chips in back street cafes,
haunted by a pair of apparitions, his insecurity and his friend's
abominable feet... This is Bill's quest to find his personal
Grail... Bill Booker's unique outlook, thought-provoking comments
and observations on life will appeal to anyone who enjoys reading
about personal discovery, personal relationships and to every new
generation that wants to know what hippies/freaks/acidheads really
got up to in the early 1970s and anyone who lived through that time
who's ready for a nostalgia fix.
