Tom Miller has been writing about conflict and culture in the Americas for close to 50 years. His books include On the Border , an account of his travels along the U.S.-Mexico frontier; The Panama Hat Trail about South America; Trading With the Enemy , which takes readers on his journeys through Cuba; and, about the American Southwest, Revenge of the Saguaro . Where Was I? A Travel Writer's Memoir zigs and zags through the riotous 1968 Democratic National Convention, smokes marijuana on the rooftop of a comfortable South American hotel, and spends the better part of a year traipsing around Cuba. Miller, a veteran of the anti (Vietnam) war movement and the underground press of the 1960s, spent months with migrants, musicians, and muck-rakers. He wrote about the Third Country between the United States and Mexico for the New York Times , and tracked down the origins of the song "La Bamba." In Spain he located an original 1605 first printing of Don Quijxote , and in Cuba held in his hands Ernest Hemingway's 1954 Nobel Prize in Literature. Writer Adam Hochschild says Where Was I? contains "sharp observations from a man who's been everywhere you'd ever want to go, known everyone you'd ever want to meet, and brought it all alive in a voice you wish you had." Martin Cruz Smith says "Miller has the passion, wit, and style of a great journalist." Linda Ronstadt simply says, "I am a Tom Miller fan."
