From the opening scene of this novel you realize that from the moment you meet Buck looking out of his bedroom window in his pajamas in June of 1961, until the closing scenes in June of 1965 on the day after high school graduation, that Buck and his friends have taken you into life in the 1960's. This novel captures the conversations; the cars; the sex; the romance; the football games; the dances; the nude streaking; the voyeur peeking; the corporal punishment in school; the skinny-dipping; the drinking; the parties; the pranks; the necking; the beachside sand dunes; the car wrecks; the high school graduation; and the graduation party. The novel is about coming of age and the teenage rite of passage, with all its humor; gawkiness; pain; and complexity At times you will roll with side-splitting laughter; at times you will cry; at times you will cheer All the chronicles are intertwined with actual historical events of the time and the popular music of the period. Brown's Will the Laughter Stop? THE BABY BOOMER CHRONICLES will become a new kind of mantra for today's grandparents to tell other generations of Americans: That's the way it was. The Author writes with a flair for description, and creates a viable setting in a Long Island, New York, Catholic High School, the kind every American city and town has, just around the corner. These characters' voices could have been anyone's in high school days, when they struggled to set boundaries; to develop ethical standards; to question the existence of God; to ponder their future; and the very existence of their life and goals. Readers of this book will ride along on the adventures, not knowing what the next day will bring, but always asking, Who will star in the movie?

Have you.....: ? Ever wanted to say "stuff the day job" and say goodbye to a life in England. Have you ever thought how much nicer it would be to work on the continent? Did you know the average Brit emigrates with only three thousand quid? Think again This is no tale of wine under the wisteria.The Three Grand Brits is a true story of what it's like to work for rich people who own chateaux in France. This is a genuine antidote to "A year in Provence." James J. Browne and his partner have worked for billionaires, corporate lawyers, celebrities and investment bankers and certainly know their stuff when it comes to dealing with the wealthy abroad. Please don't read this book if you are one of the so called "elite" it will certainly give offence. This factual tale is definitely not to be read by the English aristocracy and was described by one titled lady as "a nasty little volume." The author hopes this book will serve as an amusing cautionary tale for anyone wishing to become Chateau Guardians. This is the long overdue book that dishes the dirt on the wealthy and their foibles. James J. Browne has managed to survive for 51 years whilst having had many diverse and not necessarily interesting occupations. He has been, prior to leaving Blighty, a professional musician, a tour guide, road sweeper, recycling operative, telephone fortune teller, insulation installation operative, light bulb packer, antique dealer, waiter, sea shell salesman and barman to name a few. It was his brief career as a taxi driver that decided it was time to leave England behind, and this is where the adventure begins. He now lives and travels with his long suffering partner Samantha and two golden retrievers in a Fiat Ducato. The Three Grand Brits is the tale of their adventures on the other side of the Channel and what happened when they became Chateau Guardians. Full of humour, both light and dark, this gritty factual tale describes how the jolly foursome fared on their travels. Packed with unusual observations this book is a must for anyone wishing to emigrate and "Live the Dream." This is probably the most unusual travel book to be published in 2014.
