Advance Praise
Fred Madryga has been my friend, mentor and hunting partner for many years. He has been many things in his lifetime, including a psychologist, a college instructor, and a brain researcher. During his earlier life, he worked on jobs as diverse as running a roofing kettle and tin bashing. He also worked for several years on the west coast near the end of the high lead logging era. After that he returned to school to complete a Ph.D.
Fred has always been an explorer, both in areas of study and his own development. He has often shared with me the idea of life review as a part of creative aging. I have some sense that this collection of stories represents his honest and very personal representation of part of that process.
There is a unique variety of stories in Fred’s book. He shared many of them with me while we were sitting around a fire in a hunting camp. Or, he told them to me while driving to the drone of a pickup truck on a northern hunting trip. I hope you will enjoy them as much as I did, knowing as I do, the exceptional life these vignettes are a part of.
