Goodreads Review: "Got my hands on a copy of this WAY out-of-print book and it's next in my queue. An older friend of mine (a survivor of the '60s) gifted me with a a copy of WCYD about thirteen years ago, and I remember thoroughly enjoying it then. Anyhoo, I recently read that James Leigh (the author) passed away in California and it made me want have another look at WCYD. Unfortunately I'd lost my old copy over the years but have managed to unearth a mass-market paperback edition via the magic of Amazon. Will share my thoughts after I've reread it." - Andie Nash, June 1, 2013 (the sole review of this book on Goodreads)
