From Swillholes to Connoisseurs - Scott Glenn Maxwell

Picking up pop bottles along rural dirt roads for candy money in rural Pennsylvania and traveling the world in the military, to turning a love for motorcycle riding into a hobby gone bad with classic motorcycle restorations. Buying a first cheap fly rod and pounding streams and rivers and morphing into a fly rod building business that sours over the years of dealing with elitists, self-anointed experts, and dipsticks. Inciteful, snarky commentary on snobbish connoisseurs of beer, wine, and gadgets, near brawls with drunks at back country campgrounds as well as with good friends, and some lively exchanges with family that will resonate with many. This is a collection of irreverent, hilarious, and at times serious essays, commentary and stories of youthful adventures, and growing up into a world of military service, wide-open outdoors and adult buffoonery.
