First apolitical, then a right-winger, then a left-winger, Trout Pomeroy came to his current moderation by way of every conceivable stop along the way. Throughout this apostasy he sought to inculcate the passions he experienced, his own and others. Thirty-years after the conclusion of The American Vietnam War he drew on his reservoir of memories, files, conversations on the subject and his own wisdom to set in print If Others Remember, a highly personal yet historically evocative memoir of the late-1960s. Citing the Kent State tragedy as the key turning point of the war, the author details his own chronology within the larger story of how a certain emerging generation tap-danced its way through one of the most tumultuous periods in American history. Against a backdrop of heightened alienation, psychedelic extremism and romantic heartaches the reader encounters dozens of prominent events from the perspective of a writer who was there, taking notes, talking to others and recording it all in his illuminated mind. His retentions fostered this literary invention, a poetic and moving analysis of one man's involvement in a time we should all remember. From near misses with not only the Nixon for President campaign but also the formation of the seminal folk-rock band, The Eagles, Pomeroy's story weaves in and out of the larger American story allowing the reader an inside glimpse of a time of pivotal importance and enduring fascination.
