Robalone,
Michael Koepf here, an old name from those endless swells that have passed us by. Rob, I've just finished reading Bootlegger's Cove and I truly loved it. You've baited your hook with words, and pulled a wondrous story from that sea within your heart. It's an important book both as literature and as a history of the struggle of salmon fisherman, and of an era that's important history.
Keep pumpin'
Mike
~Mike Koeph, Author "The Fisherman's Son"
Please take note: Susan, in "Bootlegger's Cove," is a fictional chracter. Her relationship to Gar in the book's very end is made up. Any resemblence to any one real, is only because of my lack of imagination.
