I found this book in a used bookstore in Natchez while wife and I were off touring mounds and ante-bellum homes. Excellent acquisition. Despite a certain academic stuffiness that tends to leave a sourness in one's sinus cavities the work is well written. I was particularly taken by all the things I was supposed to have experienced attending college in mid 60's through late '70's that I totally missed. Evidently this book is all about bogs with a smidgen about geeks and nothing about nerds. Happily I know all about the nerd life in college in those days but this book let me see what was going on among the bogs and I am the happier for missing all that, and knowing I missed it. Bravo Bonner!
