What is the aim or goal of your writing: 1st ed. says, " his writings are humorous, "folksy," sympathetic, and entertaining. This column in the Sault St. Marie Evening News provided the material for his chief book, "Wanderings", a potpourri of ramblings, fables, legends, and reports, with our Upper Peninsula as background." 2nd ed. says, "He was the son of a Texas Ranger. While vacationaing near DeTour, MI in August, 1950, with his family, he decided that he liked the area well enough to make it his permanent home."
