Rumblin’ in the D

A poignant and comic rendition of Us against Them. As Detroit’s War babies were coming of age, they were sluggin’ it out… as if every street corner was an Arena and every bit of the City’s turf was a disputed barricade. A rare mix of Street Theatre Characters and Cops, neither of whom ever let the rhythm and tempo of life be sidelined by “what-if consequences.” As the Bobby Fuller Four Band sang, We Fought the and the Law Won… with the author eventually becoming a Courtroom Gladiator taking his battles of life from the City Streets to the Halls of Justice representing guys like himself and his erstwhile antagonists.

Tributes:

As a U of D High graduate (1964) I can identify with the fine education and training you received at Catholic Central and U of D back in the day. Your high school and college “adventures” made for very interesting reading!
– Jim Rose

Latest book… loved the book (Rumblin in the “D”)
Great street raconteur who can translate to the page !
– Bob Berg, Esquire

I am writing to thank you for the copy of your latest book. What a pleasant surprise to be able to read about your exploits and adventures from different points of your own view. Very entertaining – all the Characters and Cops that you so wonderfully described. I always find your style to be so uniquely you and I can hear your voice on every page.

I will admit to some envy of your memory and discipline to put it all down for posterity.

Keep it up!
– Gary Guerriero

Fred,
I finished reading your book on the flight home from Detroit. I really enjoyed it and there were a number of times when I found a smile on my face. I do wonder how you made it this far in life. I will check the New York Times Bestsellers List each week for your name.

– Dan Wiggen, College football teammate
