Messenger From the Summer of Love:
A Spiritual Journey
By David Rey Echt
Messenger From The Summer of Love is an original story that takes you on a mystical journey during that summer in 1967. Travel with an adventurous, twenty-year old man (Trevor) from the San Fernando Valley to the Legendary Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco, the birthplace of the Hippies.
Along his magical journey Trevor stops at the Monterey Pop Festival and eventually lands in the heart of the 1960s movement in San Francisco. This is not so much a journey in miles as it is an exploration of the mind, body, and spirit. In San Francisco Trevor meets a young teacher with the power of miracles and an important message for the future.
The author shares the legacy of the Summer of Love and its feeling of unity. He says, “Today many people are fearful and afraid to love, so we have lost something precious. What happened to that dream? This book is based on my journals, which I ‘unearthed like a fascinating time capsule.’ ”
