About this title

Synopsis

Cover Art by Abby & Lily Klemmer. Witty and softly sardonic, William Schiff's autobiographical romp describes the author's travels through America and beyond in cars he rode in, bought, modified, and stole. It is peppered with allusions to the films, literature, music, politics, and current events of America, from 1940 - 2010. It describes his incarceration, and ultimate redemption through America's Universities, rather than it's churches, and his life as criminal, student, university professor, behavioral scientist, husband, father, and retiree.

About the Author

William Schiff was a behavioral scientist and college professor, who wrote broadly on Perception & Cognition. In his Auto Biography, he describes his childhood and adolescence, his broken family, his romances with cars, driving, films, books, and people, and his travels through the American Landscape from 1940-2010.
