Howard Ziehm’s life is the stuff of legend: he is an M.I.T. whizz kid, folk music-loving hippie, and sexual outlaw, who was instrumental in the invention of the pornographic film industry. Set in an era that brought immense social and moral changes, it’s a high-def, high-velocity portrait of a time when the air was clean but sex was dirty. It is a raw report from deep inside the counterculture maelstrom that swept like a tsunami across the country. It’s compelling, sleazy, appalling, insightful, action-packed, unflinching, and funny. It’s nothing short of captivating.
