The Fugitive Philosopher, Paperback / softback Book

The Fugitive Philosopher Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Busted for pot in 1965, Timothy Leary was sentenced to 25 years in prison.

He escaped, and thus began an almost farcical odyssey: the former West Point student and Harvard professor was now an acid-tripping fugitive.

In this delightfully irreverent account, Leary describes his time in Algeria; how he was sheltered by an arms dealer in Switzerland; his exploits with the Weathermen and Eldridge Cleaver, who tried to hold him hostage; and his eventual capture and return to the United States.

The book includes black and white illustrations throughout.
