On Violence and Varietals: Confessions of a Savage Somm (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798395059895)

On Violence and Varietals is Rich Brown's coming-of-age memoir chronicling his journey from a chaotic childhood to war. In it, he recounts with complete candor his warrior's path from boyhood to Marine, Bouncer, Corrections Officer, and Police Officer. Though this reads like a journal of an unruly life set amid many a foreign and inhospitable place, it is also filled with Brown's engaging ability to find laughter, even when there is little to celebrate. In ironic, absorbing, and sometimes hilarious prose, he recounts his triumphs and tragedies of a life - fully lived.
