Summary:
If you've ever felt left behind, out-of-step or just plain bewildered
by the stampeding madness of the herd-like behavior of modern life,
come along with Scott B. Williams on an irreverent and humorous
examination of the materialism, technology and regulations of
contemporary America. Williams shares his perspective as one who
lives on the fringes of the mainstream. Just as Henry David Thoreau
went to Walden Pond in 1845 to seek simplicity and separation from
his peers in nature, Williams chose to go astray by paddling a
17-foot kayak to the Caribbean. Astray of the Herd is a collection of
observations resulting from his life on "island time" with little
money, no job, and boundless freedom to ponder the deeper questions
of life. Read this book for a laugh, give it to your stressed-out
friends, or get inspired to do some straying of your own.
