Manual of lower gastrointestinal surgery Book

Joan is not a great writer but if you're interested in the beat generation, as I am, then this book is a must read. Joan Haverty was Jack Kerouac's wife. He was living in her apartment in New York City while he was writing "On the Road". Joan is also the mother of Kerouac's only child Jan Kerouac. In fact Jan found the manuscript for this book after her mother had died. As a student of the beat generation I am glad that Jan finally got her mother's story published.
