    "Owsley was a key 1960s figure, who some would say "turned on" a generation more so than even Tim Leary, but his own life has long been shrouded in mystery. Here's a firsthand recollection, as "intimate" as is likely to be penned...Here are firsthand backstage accounts of the Monterey Pop Festival, Woodstock, Altamont, and much more ... with various Beatles, Stones, San Francisco musicians, of course, and other famed counterculture figures popping in and out."--Huffington Post "OWSLEY AND ME is totally geared toward people who have an interest in the music of the time, but also one of the most influential characters of all of drug culture. Think of it as the real BREAKING BAD, just with more peace and love, and a whole lot less guns and dead bodies."--Bookgasm "Famous people--Timothy Leary, Jerry Garcia, Ravi Shankar, Jimi Hendrix, Ken Kesey--wander in and out of the story, which delivers a vivid, behind-the-scenes look at the 1960s counterculture.

    Synopsis
    Owsley and Me is a love story set against the background of the Psychedelic Revolution of the '60s. Owsley 'Bear' Stanley met her in Berkeley in 1965, when LSD was still legal and he was the world's largest producer and distributor of LSD. Rhoney found herself working in an LSD laboratory, and the third corner in a love triangle. We all know the stories from the 60s -- but never from the point of view of a woman finding her way through twisted trails of love, jealousy, and paranoia, all the while personally connecting to the most iconic events and people of her time. Bear supported the Grateful Dead in their early years and gave away as much LSD as he sold -- millions of hits. He designed and engineered the infamous Wall of Sound system of the early '70s, just before he began his two years in prison, with Rhoney raising their infant son. He died one year ago, but the era he helped create is now being rediscovered by a new generation interested in the meaning of it all., Owsley and Me is a love story set against the background of the Psychedelic Revolution of the '60s.
