THE DRAFT DODGER 6X9 COVER.jpg

The Draft Dodger: A new book for adult readers

In 1969, young men of draft age had two options: either fight an unpopular war in Vietnam, or immigrate to Canada. This is the story of a young man who chose Canada.

When twenty-year-old draft dodger Scott Yale Knight crosses the Canadian border with his girlfriend and her toddler daughter, he is full of idealistic enthusiasm and hope for their future. As he struggles to establish a homestead for his family in the Canadian wilderness, he comes face-to-face with natural and psychological forces intent on shredding his youthful ideals and defeating his innocence.
