First sentence: Instead, here are some of the subjects Bob looks at: The Kalamazoo range (both in fable and in reality}, the art of haggling, How Lil Orphan Annie betrayed me, A favorite cat, How to tell a tall tale, Sledding when I was a kid, There was never anything like the Stanley Steamer, Traveling by train, and ...
Description: BHP is a "historical" press ...  so how does this contemporary look at the world fit in?But Bob writes contemporary history -- life the way it is (or was, a few years ago). From his vantage point at Deep Six on Maryland's Eastern Shore, Bob little essays will be the starting point for many a discussion by future historians.
Notes: It's truly impossible to describe the good feelings that live in this book. Would you like to try it? We'll make you an offer "you can't refuse."  The book sells for a discounted $12.95 -- but send us a check for $5 plus $1.75 handling and of course sales tax if it's to be shipped to a Maryland address. Try it, think about it, enjoy it, and if you don't feel it's for you, then you don't owe us a penny more. Why this offer?Because personally I ,  the editor of the book,  am very, very fond of Bob's writings and want others to enjoy them too. -- Peter Maynard
