O knihe
The Rock & Roll Stories is a coming of age memoir that follows the author from school dances and cruising hamburger stands, to Vietnam. Along the way, Yeager struggles with relationships and his own courage in the face of adolescent aggression. His passion for rock & roll music, born in the fifties when he first heard Elvis on the radio, is a sustaining thread throughout. As Dylan sang, the times were changing and as the turbulent sixties ramped up and the Vietnam war escalated, Yeager drops out of college and takes off for California with a friend to fulfill an unrealistic dream of becoming a rock & roll singer. Returning home, the dream shattered, drinking and petty theft lands him in jail and his life options suddenly become extremely narrow. Yeager enters the Army, endures basic training and Army Intelligence training, hoping to go to Germany, but winds up on a troop ship to Vietnam. While he's away, the country dramatically changes and can never return to the way it was, and neither can Yeager.
