註釋
Have you ever wondered how to use a compass? Or build a canoe? Or properly clean a gun, or cast a flyrod, or shoot a muzzle-loading rifle? Well, keep wondering. You won't learn any of that stuff from this book. Kendal Hemphill has been called a cross between Dave Barry and Pat McManus. No subject is too delicate, no politician too insulated, no topic too sensitive to be speared with the arrow of cynicism and barbequed on the backyard pit of sarcasm. If you enjoy camping, hunting, fishing, lying, and passing the buck, this book is for you. If your tastes tend more toward wall-to-wall carpet, central air-conditioning, and room service, this book is for you too. Mark Twain said, 'Humor is the great thing, the saving thing after all.' At times like these, laughter really is the best medicine. Hemphill is here to pass out the placebos. 'Down to earth and grounded are two of the most praiseworthy compliments one can receive. Kendal Hemphill deserves both of these compliments and verily reeks of this aboriginal down and dirty connection to the good mother earth. Take a breather and enjoy Kendal Hemphill.' —Ted Nugent
