Pretty impressive- Tristan Jones wrote many books, 10 or 12, I think. I have enjoyed several. I believe he died a few years ago... Does anyone know if Tristan Jones' stories are "true?" Somewhere I read that he wove occasional fiction into his remarkable tales. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Sat Nov 21 1998 - 19:10:57 PST
