32. The author asks the same thing

I was curious that it was still in print and available on Amazon so I took a peek. There is a lengthy "editorial revue" by William Powell where he pleads for the book to be taken out of print.

It seems the publisher has taken ownership of the book and grants no rights or royalties to the author. Powell claims to now be a Christian family man who no longer believes in violence as he may have in 1968. Pangs of guilt or bitterness?

I believe the publication on Amazon is not the same exact copy as the original manuscript. I don't know what's been edited.

On edit:
Finestein reminded me that I had this original book back in the early '70s when I first married (it was my wife's) She only reminded me that it's sadly been lost.
