Before the Monkeys Came" is a 2001 winner in the Writer s Digest Self-published Book Awards, Literary/Mainstream category. Frank watches as his friends are drafted to fight a war no one believes in, or he helps them escape to Canada when their student deferments expire to avoid serving in the "rock and roll war".
