About the Book

Part I of this collection is mostly autobiographical vignettes written just after the author's (abbreviated) stint at Cornell University -- (with the exception of 'Execution at the Fiar', which was written much later). 'They are presented in chronological order as best I can remember and are of such diverse styles as to resist even the simple act of collating them into a book in any other logical manner. The attentive reader will discern the reason that the styles are so diverse as adolescent experimentation. (Suffice it to say this was a period of experimentation in many ways.) Part II are more modern stories composed mostly as short pieces presented first on blogs and social media.
About the Author: The author lived and worked in the Hudson Valley of New York for twenty-three years before moving to the Catskills in 2013. He attended Cornell University and left (after a series of mutual disappointments) to pursue a career in music. After graduating from Ithaca College he spent two years in the Merchant Marine before returning to earn an MA from NYU in music. Moving to the Hudson Valley in 1989, he opened Silver Stream Winery. Presently he writes and plays bass with the New Sussex Symphony Orchestra. Most of his works in both fiction and non-fiction concerns the evolution of government sponsored science in the U.S. 'Donderburg;s Pumpkin Vine, ' describes the defenses created in the Hudson River during the RevWar and 'Makers of the Telegraph -- Samuel Morse, Ezra Cornell and Joseph Henry' is a study of the erection of the Test Telegraph between Baltimore and Washington D.C. His first major work of fiction is 'monoville' which portrays the activities of the U.S. Coast Survey of the West Coast, circa 1855.
