Paperback / softback

Description

Huston Smith has had the habit of showing up in the most remarkable places at the most historic times.

This autobiography tells the story of Smith's experiences of historic turning points and encounters with many of the people that shaped the 20th century.

In addition to the figures above, Smith tells stories of his very personal interactions with, to name a few: Mother Teresa, Eleanor Roosevelt, J.

Robert Oppenheimer, Thomas Merton, Reinhold Niebuhr, Krishnamurti, Aldous Huxley, John Kenneth Galbraith, Noam Chomsky, Robert Graves, Saul Bellow, Pete Seger, and Bill Moyers.

Smith has lived an amazing life, and his great stories of adventure and wonder serve as a travelogue, a popular history of a century of monumental changes, and an inspirational memoir.
