Review: The Grasshopper Trap

The Grasshopper TrapThe Grasshopper Trap by Patrick F. McManus
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

More of McManus’ peculiar brand of outdoorsy folk tales mixed with comic essays, like crossing Mark Twain with, maybe Elmer Fudd. Favorites in this collection were “The Skunk Ladder” and “The Grasshopper Trap”, with Retch Sweeney, Rancid Crabtree, and Crazy Eddie Muldoon. I you think those names are humorous, I suspect you'd like the stories.
