"You have made a liar out of Hemingway, who said there is noadventure anymore.” writes an early reader of Hot Coffee and Other Wild GooseTales. In 1971, a young man drops out of academia toexperience the world. He works in hard-rock mines, ocean-going trampfreighters, the woods and waters of Alaska. Set in Latin America, Colorado,Alaska, and Russia, the stories are of places and situations far outside thetrack of most modern Americans. Collectively, the forty-five true tales ofadventure, work, and travel are about one man’s quest to live life to thefullest. Hot Coffeeand Other Wild Goose Tales was written over twenty-six years, from1982 to 2008.
