So who is Hugh Nanton Romney ? Well, he's Wavy Gravy, one of the original surviving peace activists and counter-culturalists of the hippie heaven days. He prefers to appear as a clown as he was frequently arrested at demonstrations and decided he would be less likely to be arrested if he dressed as a clown; thus, he became a founding member of the Phurst Church of Phun, a secret society of comics and clowns dedicated to ending the Vietnam War through the use of political theater. He and his wife Jahanara founded and co-founded several organizations, including Camp Winnarainbow, a camp for underpriveliged kids and the Hog Farm, a peace-activist commune. The Hog Farm commune was asked to do the food catering at Woodstock - and agreed to do it, before anyone realised that a quarter of a million people were turning up! Yet they met the challenge and fed the hordes. Now in his eighties, he continues his peace activism, keeps his beliefs and has a very wonderful and unique outlook on life despite several run-ins with cancer. A very readable autobiography and a fabulous window on the Sixties. Wavy Gravy is one of the few from that socially pivotal and historic time who can remember the Sixties and who was really there.
