BIOGRAPHY / AUTOBIOGRAPHY / MEMOIR - SOLO MEDALIST WINNER

Brother, Brother: A brother’s search for his missing brother

by Dan Duffy

Dan’s memoir, mostly truth, part fiction is based on a true story and is a tribute to his older brother, Rich, whom he will always consider a casualty of the post-Vietnam era. Missing in America for the past 45 years, Rich mysteriously reappears along with his ’66 GTO convertible and coerces Dan to retrace the cross-country route Rich took back in ’70 to settle in a commune in Corrales, New Mexico. With Dan taking control behind the wheel and Rich in the passenger seat, Dan recreates some of Rich’s experiences as a flower child/Jesus freak. They visit places like The Badlands, Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, Yellowstone, The Grand Tetons, Elko Nevada, the Haight/Ashbury District, Yosemite, The Grand Canyon and Zion National Park in an attempt to understand the life Rich chose, which was so drastically different from Dan’s.
