Mountains, Campfires & Memories Champion of the backwoods, Boudreau entertains with more stories. He tells of how men survived, flourished, and perished in the northern bush; of adventures gone awry, bizarre encounters with creatures in the wild, and friendships gone sour. Often it was the local game warden or police officer who had to don his hunting gear to track down the hunter or the hunted. "All in a day's work," was their motto. 0-92057695-8 $19.95
