Sobre IBD

Jim Spencer’s name is familiar to turkey hunter and trappers across the country, but this veteran outdoorsman has done more than trap and chase turkeys. This book, the book he said he’d never write, is a stream-of-consciousness romp through 'a life well misspent,' from his first fish (when we wasn’t yet two years old) to the marathon road trip to Maine he and a friend undertook when they were both past 75. This book is a joyful journey of remembrance and celebration, with multiple trips down innumerable and interconnecting pathways, and this respected author takes you with him every step of the way. Sit back, buckle up, and enjoy the ride.
