“If you remember the ‘60s, you really weren’t there.” (Charlie Fleischer)
Daniel Caldwell remembers the heyday of the hippy movement all too well. He recalls a time when peace and love took a backseat to the darker aspects of free love and the drug counterculture.
For more than fifteen years, Caldwell experimented with every street drug available, financing his own drug habit by working within the drug trade. His involvement with drug culture led to bizarre and dangerous behavior, including dangling ten stories above ground on bed sheets, trying to retrieve his drug stash from a locked apartment.
By age thirty, Caldwell had an extensive police file and a long history of risky sexual behavior. Unable to maintain an increasingly expensive drug habit, he turned to alcohol, sinking into severe alcoholism.
Caldwell’s journey, by turns alarming, funny, and shocking, culminates with his struggle to free himself of addiction. A wild story told with often brutal honesty, Where Have All the Hippies Gone? is a fascinating descent into drug culture and how one man escapes its iron grip.

About the Author
Daniel Caldwell views his past with a mix of nostalgia and regret. He remembers the good times fondly: the friends, the sex, and the two tours working for Pink Floyd.
He also remembers the bad times: the drug use, the crime, and a complete lack of propriety or concern for others. Extensive drug use and drug dealing left him with an extensive rap sheet and, eventually, a life-saving battle against alcohol addiction.
Now retired and living in a gated community, Caldwell rarely discusses his past except with close friends. In Where Have All the Hippies Gone? he shares a life of bizarre behavior, drug use, and personal redemption."About the title" may belong to another edition of this title.
