Another re-release of an earlier work, this one improving upon a book titled It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time. Ever wonder what the sitcom MASH would have looked like had it been based on Peace Corps in India rather than the war in Korea? This hilarious memoir captures great intentions gone awry during the 'wild west' days of Peace Corps in the 1960s. It is funny, sad, and inspiring at the same time. The volunteers discovered through sharing their stories that they were the big winners from this program. Though much improved now, the last version still got a 4.4 (out of 5) star rating from Amazon readers.
