Batfishing in the Rainforest : Strange Tales of Travel and Fishing

Readers familiar with Randy Wayne White's "Out There" column in Outside magazine will relish this first collection of his best work; those new to White's delectable blend of adventure, hilarity, and spirit can only be envied for the satisfaction of that first encounter. Whether it’s `This Dog Is Legend,” in which he tells of his cinder-block-retrieving Chesapeake Bay retriever named Gator, or “Coming To America,” about the stirring—and sometimes terrifying—Mariel boat lift, White never fails to engross us in a life of sun, boats, work, and sport.
