Today's list contains a variety reprints and books. I just received one new book which may be of interest:
Sellers, John. 2011. The Old Man and the Swamp: A true story about my weird Dad, a bunch of snakes, and one ridiculous road trip. Simon & Schuster, New York, 200 p. Paperback. In a fit of questionable judgment, consummate indoorsman John Sellers tags along on a journey to search for snakes with his eccentric, aging father--an obsessive fan of Bob Dylan, a giver of terrible gifts, a drinker of boxed wine, a minister- turned-heretic, and, most importantly, the self-designated guardian of the threatened copperbelly water snake. $12.00
Please let me know if you would like anything from this list.
