Bad Trip: Irish Catholic Good Girl Trek from Activist to Short-term Soldier in Boozy, Befuddled, Post-Vietnam U.S. Army
A rambunctious, outrageous, humorous tale of transformation from Irish Catholic good girl to '60's wild child, and then to trainee in the demoralized mess that was the U.S. Army right after Vietnam. Bad Trip is a nostalgic tale about bell bottoms, Catholic school, American Bandstand, Star Trek, Bonanza, Route 66; school dances; the Beatles, Beach Boys, Guess Who, Creedence, college panty raids, keggers, weed, hitchhiking; the drama of Yippies, SDS, and Black Panthers' protesting and police busting heads at the 1968 Democratic National Convention; and dodging the draft, protesting the draft, or joining the military. If you fondly remember the '60's and '70's, or just want to hear more about them, you'll love Bad Trip.

About the Author

Izzy Quinn, after retiring from her advertising career, created DeScribe, LLC, her freelance writing business. She researched and wrote (still writes) hundreds of business management articles, blog posts and one book.

Bad Trip is her first work of fiction. It is as well, the debut publication of her DeScribe Publishing firm.

After traveling, in her youth, from upstate New York to Minn. and Pa., Izzy's career - and her ongoing love for a career soldier - took her to Alaska, Calif., North and South Carolina, and Indiana.

She now lives and avidly hikes in Sun City, Ariz. While her wanderlust has not subsided, this is her last home.
