Real Ponies Don't Go Oink! by Patrick F Mcmanus

Hilarious and heartwarming stories of outdoor mishaps and misadventures from the beloved five-time New York Times bestselling humorist, Patrick F. McManus, "a writer who makes people laugh out loud, hard" (The New York Times).

McManus bags another in this collection of twenty-six yarns featuring irascible woodsman Rancid Crabtree, "Phantom of the Woods" Retch Sweeney, boyhood pal Crazy Eddie, and hunting dog Strange, whose prey of choice is year-old roadkill. Outdoor enthusiasts will love McManus's hysterical observations on the joys of pig-back riding, workshop puttering, and Sasquatch ducking. So will those who, like McManus's wife Bun, appreciate nature most from the window of a seven-story luxury hotel.

Including such classic stories as "Secret Places" and "A Good Deed Goes Wrong." Careful with that bobcat!

Patrick F., Ph.D. McManus (1933-2018) wrote novels, plays, and more than a dozen compilations of his humor pieces from publications such as Outdoor Life and others. His books have sold approximately two million copies, including the best-selling The Shoot Canoes, Don't They?
