I have not heard of James W Hall before, the author. This is a collection of columns he wrote for a Florida newspaper over 3 years, just about his observations of what was going on around him or in his life I guess. He was also writing books at this time--I may have to look some of these up. Not too bad, a nice read that gives you an idea of him and the area of S Florida back in the 1990s at some point. I finished it a week or so ago & now having a hard time remembering much of this--I remember his search for & finding his house and then hurricane Andrew came through and knocked down trees & damaged the house some. A casino in the Everglades--Indian run so I guess was kosher and maybe a couple more. Nothing really that stuck with me but was a nice read. The title probably gave me more hope than I should have had for this book.
I will go ahead and post it on PBS, there is already 1 copy in the system so I don't expect it to go anywhere but that ol' never know thing.
