He taught me how to see the world from the point of view of a Methodist raised in Iowa, North Dakota, and California. Difficult for me, a radical Greek raised in Lowell, Massachusetts who thought another Greek Massachusetts politician, Michael Dukakis, was too conservative. This book explores my origins, how I became political, and how I came out as a gay man in Boston over the period of the 1960s through the 1980s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Scondras\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1721284907\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781721284900\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.46d","brand":"David Scondras","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48519155581183,"sku":"9781721284900","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c78f24e9-8fef-4830-8b55-fb0bd6bcb814.jpg?v=1778736950","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-beginning-2nd-edition-david-scondras-9781721284900","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
