FROM THE AUTHOR, THE BEST OF EVERYTHING ALEX AND MAUREEN INTO A NEW LIFE. SEPTEMBER 15TH 1967 Never before have I enjoyed writing a novel as I did, The Mystery of Tompkins Square Park. This Story is proof that love is the most powerful force on earth. Reading this novel if you don't laugh or cry in parts then you're not human. Emotionally at times I had to walk away and in other parts I'm still laughing. If you were a teenager in the sixties you will understand this novel very well. If America survived the sixties like it did then we can survive anything. Years from now I will still be laughing at some of things Bonnie did and said. Both Alex and Bonnie passed the test of their patients and they won out. For now good bye Alex and Maureen and see you in my dreams.
