<P>Following his best-selling <I>The Detective in the Dooryard</I> Tim Cotton brings a fresh set of keen observations to his new collection. Drawing upon more than thirty years as Maine police officer--and even longer as a born-and-bred Mainer--Cotton shares stories about life--in Maine and elsewhere--about his experiences and about the people he&#39;s met along the way. With generous portions of wry Yankee wit and sage wisdom this new collection will leave you laughing crying or maybe both at once.</P>
