An exiled war resister himself, Roger Neville Williams tells how
and why this country has lost so many of its most talented,
intelligent, and aware young men and women to Canada. And thirteen
of these draft dodgers and deserters report their own highly
individual experiences in a series of sometimes startling, often
frightening, always candid interviews. Lindy Blake of the Presidio
27 relates in horrifying details his life in the military
stockades. Jerry Samuels, a Vietnam veteran, describes with brutal
honesty how he and his friends shot Vietnamese girls after raping
them and why he then deserted from combat. Jesse Winchester, the
folk-rock singer, recalls his decision to resist the draft. They,
and the others interviewed, discuss how they made the agonizing
decision to go, their new lives in exile, and the Canadian reaction
to them, in this comprehensive account of an unprecedented
phenomenon of mass self-exile.
