In 1968 I dropped out of college to become a bum. We called ourselves hippies, but we were really just tramps and hobos. From nightmare to nightmare I groped to find my way, until at last I was confronted — not by an experiment with some new high, or some far-out religion — but by Jesus Christ Himself.

I have only read a few books more than twice. I feel like I became part of the story while reading this personal documentation of life experiences by Bradford He
