DRAFTED, A Memoir of the '60's by Heywood Gould

Join us for a book signing of Heywood’s newest release.

Synopsis

It's 1966, and young Heywood Gould, a Brooklyn boy with literary ambitions, has his dream job. He is a reporter at the ultra liberal (that's right liberal) New York Post, alongside young writers like Nora Ephron, Pete Hamill and Anthony Scaduto. New York is a newspaper town, six dailies trying to beat each other to the big story. He revels in the action and competition. 

It's one of the most consequential moments in American history. Gould chases stories about the civil rights struggle, the anti-war movement, riots and rat infestation and World's Fair scandals. He covers everything from toy shows to murder trials. This is the best training for an apprentice writer.

Other notable books by Heywood Gould include: Cocktail, Fort Apache, The Bronx
Rolling Thunder and The Boys From Brazil
