Cruising with Mark Twain: Bellwether Bob

What's an adventure to you? Perhaps meeting a famous, crusty, old - young - author. Maybe it's coming face-to-face with a local myth - or myths from several locals.

Throw in a little magic, and that's what Bellwether Bob found as his adventure. But did it start in Alaska when he caught sight of those kids, or when he was charged to bring that darn, little rock from Seattle to Hawaii?

And what role did Star Trek, the Seattle Underground and wait for it - Irish Whiskey, have to do with it all? And why 1866?

As background - no need to read the first Bellwether, as the Preface will bring you up to speed. But Bellwether Bob was an orphan from Nome, Alaska who made his living as a comedian and by panning for gold on the Nome beaches. He moved to Anchorage, Alaska - where this volume picks up.

His Nephew Albert said it best when he described his uncle's comic routine, [and demeanor in general] as a combination of "that real old guy, Bob Newhart and that guy on the Red Green Show [Steve Smith]." If you enjoy these two characters, you'll love Bellwether Bob! At a little over 100 pages, it's an easy and fun read!
