Publisher's Synopsis
As the title says: these stories and other pieces take the reader from a promising beginning to new pleasures. The stories roam from unexpected romance to treachery. The reader can choose between a longer adventure to briefer ones that deliver a surprising twist. The poems bring casual cheer. Sometimes there is a touch of irreverence (Beg pardon, Ma'am) but never any sleeze. Bored passengers with you on an airplane will envy your having this book. Enjoy a bacheolor being coaxed into a multi-cultural romance or a man in danger from is ex-wife's treachery. Wedding party goes awry with humor. The poem 'Out-foxing a fly' has to be a delight. The anthem is a serious tribute to pioneer farmers. The book is scattered with quick wit throughout.
