I just read the article about Michael Maurer and his book Perfume River Nights. I am a friend of Mike’s, and we went to grade and high school together. I attended his initial book signing and talk on May 22 at the College of St. Benedict. Since he and I are Facebook friends, I see all the events he has been at with his talks and book signings. Your article is the best coverage and addresses the message Michael conveys.
When he returned from Vietnam, he was definitely a changed person. After reading his book and listening to his talk, I now understand why.
Thank you for the excellent report on Mike’s presentation.
