"Big feet and a Mouth To Match"
Gifted to me by a friend who thought we'd have a lot in common, because, trappers, prospecting, what's the diff? Anyways...
This was surprisingly (to me) much easier to read than the cover would have led me to believe. Basically the childhood reminiscings of a trapper/guide/outdoorsman who grew up (and trapped) in and around White Rock and Vancouver.
A very droll way of looking at things, interesting characters, times, this would have made for an excellent kids book - a-la "The Great Brain" series - a favorite of mine when I was a certain age - were it not for a few (unnecessary) adult references.
Initially skeptical I soon found myself laughing out loud and managed to devour it in an afternoon. Once in a while it's a treat to read something light...
