This memoir of Gipcy Tex recounts his journey from a troubled youth in South Carolina through military service in Vietnam, where he underwent political and personal transformations shaped by encounters with fellow soldiers, drugs, and disillusionment. After repeated tours in Vietnam and the death of his close friend Gary, he deserted the Air Force and became deeply involved in radical antiwar activism, including the Quaker Peace Vigil and the militant May Day protests in Washington, D.C. His life intersected with figures like Janis Joplin, and he immersed himself in the countercultural circuit of concerts, collectives, and demonstrations. Through relationships with women like Donna and friends in Rainbow circles, he sought community in communes, gatherings, and alternative lifestyles, eventually finding solace in the Rainbow Family Gathering of 1977. Despite betrayals, hardships, and periods of militant resistance, his narrative closes with his enduring desire to live simply as a “hippie dope farmer” in the western countrys
