Confessions Of A Non-Violent Revolutionary: Bean Stew, Blisters, Blockades and Benders
by Chris Savoury 
Clairview Books £12.99

CONFESSIONS of a Non-violent Revolutionary is a political memoir that manages to cover all bases in that it is gentle, honest, funny, sad and inspiring.    

[[{"fid":"25430","view_mode":"inlineright","fields":{"format":"inlineright","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false},"link_text":null,"type":"media","field_deltas":{"1":{"format":"inlineright","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false}},"attributes":{"class":"media-element file-inlineright","data-delta":"1"}}]]Determined to fight for a peaceful, socially just and ecologically sustainable society, Chris Savoury dropped out of Oxford University in the early ’80s and embarked upon a journey that was to see him living on peace camps, experimenting in communal living and organic allotments, touring in mining communities as part of an agitprop theatre group and working in a radical bookshop.

Although he comes into contact with the organised left and often shares many of their sentiments he eschews tight ideology and later encounters with both Quakerism and, more recently, Unitarianism see his beliefs anchored more in overtly spiritual paths.
