Anyone read Don Shumaker's autobiography "Woodsbum" ? Looks like it would be a good read. The ad I saw also has 2 other books he wrote, "Follow the Dream" and "Journals of a Coyotero". Looking for a few new books.

I've got both the Woodsbum and the Coyotero. Both good reads.

I have really enjoyed reading "Following the Dream" series in the "Trappers Post".

I picked up a copy of Woodsbum at the recent FTA convention. I just got started reading it earlier tonight. I am enjoying it so far.
