Böcker av Robert E. Pike

In this robust, informal book, Robert E. Pike tells the colorful story of logging and log-driving in New England.

The tales collected are narrated here by "Old Vern," a cantankerous back woods character. Here are legends and wild anecdotes of the loggers and rivermen who worked in the woods and on the Connecticut and Androscoggin Rivers, plying their trade in the early part of the 20th century.
