In this coming-of-age story in the late 1960’s, Dave Ferrier relates his embellished and enjoyable adventures with his companions Margaret Mary and Teddy as they mature thru the agonies and ecstasies of graduating high school and deciding their future as the world changes rapidly around them. Song lyrics from the Emerging Rock music of the era (The Beatles, Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, and more) and the historical events of the time (the Kennedy Assassination and the Vietnam War Draft) are cleverly intertwined with the plot. This is history relayed through the eyes and ears of a Rock & Roll generation Raised on Rock.
