Overview

""Knuckleheads"" is a comic memoir of the author's misadventures in Jamaica in 1972. Arrested for possession of marijuana and jailed with two college friends, Carlson, then 19, faced 18 months at hard labor. Hearing that news, his father-- a cranky, funny and hot-headed blue collar worker-- flew to Jamaica to rescue his errant son. Hijinks ensued and finally... .well, we don't want to spoil the ending of this hilarious story. It's a son's warm comic tribute to his loving, cantankerous and very funny father.
