On New Year's Eve, 1967, Bobby met up with some of
his former school friends in Vidalia to bring in the New Year and to catch up on their accomplishments and their goals.
They used this opportunity to celebrate before returning to the world of work, education, and the Vietnam War.
Not long afterward came the notification of Sammy Galloway’s “casualty” in the Tet Offensive. Now all that mattered to Bob was protesting the Vietnam War, parties and getting stoned. No place was better suited for the Hedonistic Paradise than Boston.
In 1970 the war spilled into Cambodia with the students of Boston and Cambridge erupting in rage. They marched to the Harvard Bridge that joins Boston with Cambridge. It was
called "The Great Harvard Square Riot of 1970”. Bob Darby relates what he saw."

Autobiographical work by and about Bob Darby, a lifelong human rights activist. Darby came of age as a privileged Caucasian in the segregated South during the civil rights conflict at home and during the Vietnam War. When Darby graduated from Emory University and enrolled at Harvard and Tufts, he found many who shared his dedication to the anti-war movement. Few of Darby’s friends realized that he was also fighting a very personal war. The sensitive and gifted young man’s manic depression sometimes led to wild exuberance and other times to suicidal attempts to end his own life. He became a man with empathy for downtrodden people through serving as a civil rights advocate, peace activist, and the founder of “Food Not Bombs” in Atlanta, Georgia. His writings make the reader feel the excitement and frustration of his adventures and passion for social justice and his quest for normalcy.

Bob was troubled by memories at age 9 in Toombs County, GA. when he saw torchlights illuminating the Ku Klux Klan marchers in white sheets. While the Civil war of 1861 – 1865 freed the slaves, discrimination was still active in 1954. By the time Bob graduated from college and was elgible for the draft, he soon learned the Vietnam war was a country fighting to form a stable government of all their people. The unnecessary loss of U.S. lives seemed irrelevant as long as a profit was made through ships and war equipment being sold to both sides. There were also confirmed rumors of illegal drugs being shipped in and out of war zones in US planes. Follow The Pentagon's School of the Americas at Fort Benning, GA who trained U.S. Army soldiers from 18 Latin American countries. It was called the "School of Assassins" where training encouraged death squads, coups, torture, and massacres. This book includes names, dates, and locations of the suspected war crimes.
