There is a new skinhead book now published by Phillip Lesbirel called 'Life's Journey'. It is a series and 3 books have now been published with a promised 4th shortly.
The storyline is of a young 16 year old youth who discovers the skinhead way of life, its gay love and fetishes. Johnnie is a tough, street wise kid and ends up being jailed for assault. On release from prison, he decides he needs to leave England and head to a country where he can start again, but his prison record will not allow him to move legally so he buys a new identity and signs on to a freighter bound for Australia.
In Cape Town he meets with Joe, an orphaned dockside worker and Joe stows away on board ship when it leaves port. Johnnie falls for Joe and they decide to jump ship in Melbourne, but their plans are thwarted by the ship's Captain and as they are heading into Port Philip Bay, a police tender comes aside the ship. Johnnie and Joe jump overboard. Book 3 ends with our wandering if they survived, but with the announcement of book 4, we have to believe they did.
Books 1, 2 and 3 have a great story. Set in the late 60's at the start of the skinhead culture, it does discuss some of the more bazaar fetishes known to the gay world at that time. It also deals with the rivalry of the skinhead gangs or crews of the time. I loved all 3 books, can't wait for book 4.
