Kenny Salwey’s Tales of a River Rat: Adventures Along The Wild Mississippi

Description

The river rat is back! Following the success of “The Last River Rat,” “Kenny Salwey?s Tales of a River Rat” presents much more of this legendary storyteller?s “rat tales” which are sure to please, inform, and entertain.

Using six thousand acres of Upper Mississippi River valley swamps and floodplain forests as his stomping grounds, Kenny Salwey grew up learning the ways of the old-time river rats. Lately, he holds the honored title of Last River Rat.

A born storyteller, Kenny inherited the ability to spin a tale from his maternal grandmother. On this recent choice of “rat tales,” Kenny pursues runaway steers throughout the river bottoms, battles a wary old trout, and shares his sleeping quarters with a black bear. Kenny also partakes of the quieter things in life, like sauntering throughout the swamp, befriending a pair of squirrels, and kickin? skunk cabbage. Through all his backwater adventures and misadventures, Kenny never stops learning from his flora and fauna.

Balancing insight with laughter, and populated with a colorful array of swampland travelers and animals, Kenny?s tall tales bring alive the wealthy simplicity of a life lived along the mighty Mississippi.
