Publisher's Synopsis
Switters is a contradiction for all seasons: an Anarchist who works for the government, a pacifist who carries a gun, a vegetarian who sops up ham gravy. Yet there is nothing limp about Switters. He doesn't merely pack a pistol - he is a pistol. As readers follow Switters across four continents, Robbins explores, challenges and celebrates virtually every major aspect of this mercurial era.
