Publisher's Synopsis
The stories, rants, letters, and essays in "A Pilgrim Muddles Through" represent a sometimes serious, as in 'Credo of a God Fearing Atheist', sometimes ridiculous, as in 'The Hard Life of a Poet', and sometimes instructive, as in 'Brigs I Have Known', but but always an interesting glimpse of modern day trials and tribulations. The breadth of the topics covered is enormous, and all but the serious treatments are given a light touch by an obvious iconoclast. You can discover how at last we can have peace in the Middle East; how to become an unsuccessful author; and how to get book on the Goodyear blimp; and, yes, ride a bus from Haifa to Amman on a Saturday. Also enjoying and edifying are the pictures and cartoons that illustrate many of the stories.
