Bøker av Patrick F. McManus

Sheriff Bo Tully is famous for his hunches--most recently, his suspicion that local retiree Orville Poulson has been murdered by his ranch caretaker, Ray Crockett--a sociopath with a criminal record. The only problem is that Tully has no evidence and no body to prove that a crime has been committed.

Best-selling outdoor humorist McManus (The Night the Bear Ate Goombaw) bags another in this collection of yarns featuring irascible woodsman Rancid Crabtree, "Phantom of the Woods" Retch Sweeney, boyhood pal Crazy Eddie, and others of McManus's acquaintance. Also meet hunting dog Strange, dog delinquent, whose prey of choice is year-old roadkill. Readers of McManus's humor column in Outdoor Life will enjoy his observations on the joys of pig-back riding, workshop puttering, and Sasquatch ducking. So will those who, like McManus's wife Bun, appreciate nature most from the window of a seven-story luxury hotel.

A guide to the author's existing work in humour. It weighs in on his childhood, everyday life, and outdoor tales with his typical exaggerated commentary that can elicit a belly laugh from all types of readers.
