Deer Tails & Other Tales

This book consists of forty-three individual stories of true hunting fishing or related events experienced by the author his relatives and friends over a period of sixty-five years. I began writing these stories when I realized they were an important part of my life and would be lost forever unless they were recorded for posterity. I eventually amassed over eighty different stories but that was too much writing for my book. As a result I have reduced it nearly in half by editing out all but the most interesting and memorable stories. They are humorous unbelievable factual informational and frightening and I hope they make interest reading.</p>I enjoy writing and am a staff writer for the online sporting magazine: <I>Maine Hunting Today</I>. In the summer I live at the cottage on North Pond Woodstock and winters in Plant City Florida. I was born in Rangeley Maine but was brought up and attended school in West Paris. I enjoy woodworking and have built furniture; wooden boats and both traditional and cedar strip canoes and hand hewn paddles. I tie my own trout flies. I also enjoy woodcarving so it's a busy and productive life.</p>
