"Hub" Miller's recollections of growing up on a large cattle ranch in
the 1940's are just plain excellent story telling. He romantically
describes how a young boy could find endless adventure in rural America
before the advent of TV, video games, and the internet- back when the
main source of contact with the outside world was though the arrival of
the "Montgomery Wards" catalog.
The "Pacifica" section eloquently addresses both the natural beauty
of the Pacific Northwest and the complex relationship between native
Americans and those of us who have arrived here a bit more recently. If
you live in (or just love) this area of the country then you'll truly
appreciate these short essays.
Hub may have been best known for his musical talent but this book
shows he was a very gifted writer as well who was unfortunately taken
from this Earth before his time. — David Kinkley www.amazon.com
"I only
got to it about a week ago but, once begun, I found it completely engaging
and read it straight through...it's a wonderfully elegiac and thoroughly
enjoyable read. —Stuart
