Roiling Dust by Herm Zandman Pdf

After working line haul along the Australian roads, former teacher Herm Zandman decided to switch gears hauling grain and fertilizer across Outback Australia. It turned out to be a trucking experience vastly different from the one which he described in his two books Blood, Sweat and Gears and Its Not a Truck! Its a B-Double! This story takes the reader through the vastness of the Outback in a bulk tipper B-Double. The common theme running through the book is the puniness of human scratches on the vast expanse. Roiling dust, created by Outback travelers like road trains and B-Doubles, settles quickly once the rigs have traveled through and serenity returns as if nothing had ever stirred the landscape. In the book, the author relates first hand experiences with the land, the people, the flora and fauna, plus a number of unique Outback activities and touristic attractions that can be found by the discerning tourist and the roaming truck driver. Dr Zandman and his wife currently reside in South Australia. He is still trucking at the time of writing, this time on a milk haulage B-Double, the target of his next childrens book Tanker 80.

Liar's Code by Richard Chiappone Pdf

Warm, funny, and memorable musings on a life spent fishing. With this eclectic collection of personal essays taking him from his childhood haunts along the industrial Niagara River of the 1960s to Alaska and the saltwater flats of the Caribbean, Richard Chiappone elongates the fishing-writing genre, suggesting that he finds almost anything a fisherman does interesting—anything but the actual fishing. In one piece, he gets no farther than the curb outside his upstate New York childhood home, futilely waiting for his ride to the rivers of his dreams. In another account he describes an afternoon, standing in a midwinter snow bank, casting to house cats. With humor and self-skewering wit, Chiappone admits he can’t cast very well, ties some of the ugliest flies in the world, and spent nineteen years of his life trying to catch a permit. The essays, both funny and touching, reveal him as a writer of stark contradictions: a man who despises winter and loves living in Alaska; who laments having spent half his life just downstream from the infamous Love Canal, and simultaneously remembers those years with elegiac fondness. Lifting his gaze past the tip of his fly rod, and beyond the river and the fish all the way into his own heart, he portrays everything from a sentimental memory of his mother to his doubts about the adequacy of his grief over a dead daughter, making this compilation a kind of memoir in linked essays—a fisherman’s life examined. Skyhorse Publishing is proud to publish a broad range of books for fishermen. Our books for anglers include titles that focus on fly fishing, bait fishing, fly-casting, spin casting, deep sea fishing, and surf fishing. Our books offer both practical advice on tackle, techniques, knots, and more, as well as lyrical prose on fishing for bass, trout, salmon, crappie, baitfish, catfish, and more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to publishing books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked by other publishers and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
