Catch a fresh dose of the spirit of Twain, Abbey, Kerouac and Castenada...rolled into one. Like Cormac McCarthy, only more realistic. (Yikes!) Wild...

I've had a strong connection to the Straits area of Michigan for decades, mostly via the backways. A couple years ago I finally went in thr...

Stephen Potter: the hilarious classic "One-upmanship"
March 05, 2006 - [$15] "One-upmanship" is a slim, 175-pg send-up of stuffy British clubbishness and the endless ways that "players" have of foiling and impressing each other. [UPDATE: Out of stock on "Up" but I do have a fine copy of "Gamesmanship," also a great read, with a great section on how to win at not paying for lunch.]
Stephen Potter (n...

OYB Anthology! ---Indy action galore
July 16, 2005 - [$15. $5 off $20 retail!] I've been pushing the OYB Anthology on the back-issues page but really it deserves its own attention.

Spring Creek Chronicles (Vols. 1 & 2)
January 05, 2005 - [$15] This isn't really a boating book. But then none of my offerings are easy to categorize. (That's the whole point. Reality isn't black'n'white...or a genre or a niche.)
The dedication of the book might give you a better idea: the author gives thanks to the Florida Game Wardens: without them busting him and taking away his ...
