How did a child raised with a stern Midwestern Christian values who as a seventh grader was shocked to hear that boys put their "things" into girls to make babies grow up to be a legendary porn pioneer? This is Howard Ziehm's ribald story told with brazen honesty. A story that found him leaving high school in Monterey, California haunted by sleep walking nightmares to attend MIT only to drop out after 3 years to join the free love pot smoking movement in Berkeley. Ten years later he was in Los Angeles where he and his partner were named by the LA Times as the Boy Kings of Porno even as the cities' vice squad chased him through the streets and eventually put him on trial for an assortment of sex crimes. Wilson's Dachboden, an Australian blog, calls TAKE YOUR SHAME AND SHOVE IT a fascinating portrait of an era that brought immense moral and social change.
