APRIL a Homeless story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780985704773)

This Homeless book is a tribute written and dedicated to both, my reading audience and the homeless people who provided much material, not so much through individual accounts of their own lives, but more so through my personal observations over several decades.

I have had the good fortune provided by the U.S. Government to travel extensively not only within the country, but also outside of its borders, and in the process had the opportunity to gauge foreign cultures against our own. It was this platform that provided me with great insight into other country's problems, as well as with homelessness, not only inherent to the United States but worldwide.

I should point out that other countries have the same or similar issues with diverse social behavior not being easily managed. It seems that money does not matter much to the self-imposed homeless. Their objective for a successful life is geared towards a freedom of movement and social independence. I realize that there are two factions when addressing homelessness. One, there are the unfortunate ones landing on the streets who have lost a job, became too ill to work, feeling culturally deprived for equality, disabled American war veterans, drug and alcohol addicts that cannot perform on the job, and many more victims. Two, there is the nomadic hippie and prepper seeking independence from government subjection and social responsibility.

I hope the reader will have the patience to accept the wealth of material and information on the homeless issues I present within my story on homelessness. It is this information that will make one understand the homeless situation from both perspectives, the reader and the destitute.
