wonderful stuff. this puritan country has no idea what it discards without a second thought.

@jhop9898 My friend Charles Plymell rightly observed that Huncke could "gather people into his soul." He was by far that most compelling storyteller that I ever met, and he was very generous with his time.

Read it and weep folks, this is the real storyteller you seldom encounter

I think I take my Huncke reader down from my bookshelf more than any book......other than my bible of course.

Tremendous historic capture.

How wonderful! What great stories Huncke told. I am so glad you captured some on video!

"...ready to introduce a new world with a shrug..."

"We're all guilty of everything..."
