    About this ebook

    On the pleasure boats of the Old Mississippi, passions ran high when men gambled for the favors of beautiful women -- and renegades carried off girls along with other loot.


    Disguised as a notorious outlaw, hot-blooded Dave Macdonough invaded the river rogues' hideout in a reckless attempt to destroy them.
    But his mission became an act of persona! vengeance when he met the lovely swamp water girl who was their captive mistress.

      The Rod That Changed Bass Fishing

      Feb 21, 2022

      A Knotty Subject

      Feb 7, 2020

      Many readers will be unaware that, a couple of decades ago, the RYA cruising syllabus still specified the ability to whip a rope’s end in a seamanlike manner. I’m sad to report that this quietly disappeared somewhere around 2003. On the whole, the sy
