Into the Twilight, Endlessly Grousing - by Patrick F McManus (Paperback)

About the Book

A wry, wickedly funny, and decidedly iconoclastic view of outdoor adventure, by the bestselling author who writes in "a style that brings to mind Mark Twain, Art Buchwald, and Garrison Keillor" ("People").

Book Synopsis

Patrick McManus offers wry observations about small-town life and curmudgeonly insists on bigger and bigger fish stories in this hilarious collection from one of the greatest contemporary humorists.

Patrick McManus believes that life's eternal truths exist solely for the purpose of being overturned and proved incorrect. In McManus's world, nothing is what it should be. All steaks should be chicken-fried, strong coffee is drunk by the light of a campfire, and fishing trips consist of men acting like boys and boys behaving like the small animals we've always assumed they were.
