For 34 years, readers of the Yakima Herald-Republic looked forward to Rob Phillips' Northwest Sportsman column every Thursday morning. Whether he was sharing a memorable day afield, a hard-earned lesson, or an unexpected adventure, Rob brought the outdoors to life with warmth, humor, and honesty.

¢

Along the way, there were plenty of mishaps. He fell out of boats, found himself banned from a caf© in South Dakota, and crossed paths with more than a few unsportsmanlike sportsmen. Through it all, his stories captured the joys, frustrations, and unforgettable moments that come with a life spent outdoors.

¢

This collection gathers many of those reader favorites, along with other memorable tales drawn from nearly 60 years of outdoor experiences. The result is a rich mix of humor, reflection, and adventure from a writer who has spent a lifetime exploring the wild places and colorful characters of the American West.

Industry Reviews

"Rob Phillips is a wonderful outdoors writer and an even better man. His columns delighted readers of the Yakima Herald-Republic for more than 30 years, and as he aged, his tales have become ageless. His laugh-out-loud stories here range from losing a game of musical (hunting) chairs to a "chapped" rear end and to a hunting trip where he slept (or not) in 14 degrees below zero ... indoors. Anyone who ventures along in Rob's excursion through modern life, indoors or out, is in for a whimsical treat."

   ~Jane Gargas, retired reporter, Yakima Herald-Republic

â

"Rob Phillips' latest book is a delight to read. Green Chairs and Squeaky Sheets chronicles decades of real-life adventures and misadventures pulled like gold nuggets from his much-loved newspaper columns. His relatable writing style pulls you along from beginning to end. I guarantee you will finish each story with a smile on your face."

   ~Dennis Dauble, author of Chasing Ghost Trout and A Rustic Cabin
