An Eloquent Caper
Randall Probert lived and was raised in Strong, Maine, a small town in the western mountains of Maine. Six months after graduating from high school, he left the small town behind for Baltimore, Maryland and a Marine Engineering School, situated downtown near what was then called “The Block”. Because of bad weather, the flight from Portland to New York was canceled and this made him late for the connecting flight to Baltimore.  A young kid and alone from the backwoods of Maine finally found his way to Washington DC and boarded a bus from there to Baltimore. After leaving the Merchant Marines, he went to an aviation school in Lexington, Massachusetts. During his interview for Maine Game Warden he was asked, “You have gone from the high seas to the air. . .are you sure you want to be a Game Warden?” Mr. Probert retired from Warden Service in 1997 and started writing historical novels about the history in the areas where he patrolled as a game warden, with his own experiences as a game warden as those of the wardens in his books. Mr. Probert has since expanded his purview and has written 2 science fiction books, PARADIGM and PARADIGM2, and has written a mystical adventure, AN ESOTERIC JOURNEY. Mr. Probert is also currently working on another historical novel, EBEN McNINCH, which should be available in the fall, 2014.--This text refers to an alternatePaperbackedition.
