In "Save the Wild Ass," a biting satire of American stereotypes and the world in which they live, Payton Lockett, a Vietnam War veteran suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, finds himself on the lam for accidental homicide. To conceal his whereabouts, he joins a group of social misfits and lost souls who are on a cross-country trek from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. to raise hell and money in a fruitless, comedic effort to save an animal they know nothing about from extinction."Rick Zabel concocts a rollicking tale that is at times hilarious, at times sad, and always full of surprises. Although Zabel pokes fun at our sometimes off-beat urge to mount protests for the sake of protesting, he shows sensitivity for our human fallibility. The story is at once over the top yet down and dirty." -Robert Grover, author of 12 books, including the 1960s sensational bestselling satire on racism, "One Hundred Dollar Misunderstanding"
