Girl: An Untethered Life - Paperback

Born on the South African veldt to a San Francisco socialite and a dashing Afrikaner, Julia "Girl" Dreyer Brigden has lived many lives. Crossing the Atlantic on the Queen Elizabeth and traversing the United States in a 1953 Lincoln Continental, the family washes up on the shores of the Pacific as the cultural revolution is about to begin. Leaving home at 16 to hitchhike unaccompanied to Mexico and landing in Ajijic, Julia settles in with a cast of bohemian characters for the first of what will become many adventures... From the Golden Gate Park Human Be-In to gem trading in Jaipur, India, from flying high with the Jefferson Airplane to crashing and burning on the streets of San Francisco, Julia's story is a roller-coaster ride through the ups and downs of living an "untethered" life.
