It's a beautiful book, and one of the most wonderful, saddest things I've read. I don't know if you've ever fallen into a great book or a great movie so much that you start to live it, and find that at some point in that world you join something awful happens, and that that awful thing affects you deeply, and when you come back to that book or movie at some later point and go through the experience again you dread that moment, and sort of hope that this time, maybe, that thing won't happen, that the cup will pass, but it doesn't, and it damages you all over again, and yet in some way the whole experience is life-affirming.
Well, that's what this book is like.
I'll leave the second last word to Gregg Allman:
The last word I'll leave to Duane himself. He's on guitar here accompanying Wilson Pickett.
Anyway, next post will - I promise - be wargame related!
