Age and Guile

P. J. O’Rourke shares his transformation from a dirty hippie to a conservative middle-aged grouch in Age and Guile: Beat Youth, Innocence, and a Bad Haircut . The New York Times bestseller gives readers an insight into the remarkable trajectory that took O’Rourke from revolutionary barricades of the 1970s to the serious business of the nineteenth hole. In his memoir, O’Rourke chronicles how he went from raging pinko to a man who now supports Republican party, uncomfortable clothes, engagement rings, car accidents, Pat Boone, competition, patriotism and cheating.
