McManus, \"a writer who makes people laugh out loud, hard.\" (The New York Times) McManus's first story collection, gathering twenty-seven witty, cautionary tales about camping, fishing, backpackers, and bears, with an introduction by Jack Samson, long-time editor-in-chief of Field \u0026amp; Stream. In A Fine and Pleasant Misery, McManus reminisces about the adolescent thrill and terror of \"backyard safaris\" and pedaling his \"two-wheeled ATV\"; he ventures down harrowing rapids and through the almost equally harrowing parking lot of a national park during the busy season; and he shares teachings from his wilderness mentor, Rancid Crabtree. The great outdoors have never been rendered as hysterically as in these tales-true and exaggerated. Including such classic stories as \"A Fine and Pleasant Misery\" and \"Shooting the Chick-a-nout Narrows.\" \"A hilarious compilation\" -The Los Angeles Times","brand":"Henry Holt \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Used - acceptable","offer_id":53598769807702,"sku":"9780805000320-B","price":6.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9780805000320_1.jpg?v=1778520079","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/mcmanus-patrick-a-fine-and-pleasant-misery-9780805000320","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
