To all the kids that grew up in 50's and 60's...To those who were told by their parents and teachers that they had more opportunities available to them than any other generation in history...To the Kennedy generation that was asked what they could do for their country and not what their country could do for them...To the idealists who took these statements seriously and marched in the streets for civil rights...To the Vietnam veterans who fought in a foreign land and gave their life for democracy and freedom...To all those who felt that we had been betrayed by the adults...Walking the Midway in Purgatory is your story. It is a remarkable journey and it will draw you into the heart of the action. This journal makes you realize that you are a witness and a participant of the times that you live in, that life in America is not just a wiennie-roast or a spectator sport. As Mr. Masesso's first book it is a five star performer and a probable screen play. I look forward to other writings from this author.
Admittedly there were parts I had to think about ...
It is a reminiscence of a lifes journey with a by play of events that are part of History.
I was also there for the turning of events.
The reflections brought to me a reminder of the visions that could have been.
Now again I have been caused to weep.
