At Large: Whimsical Travel Tales

by Rick Sterry

"We sank the canoe again in the beginning of a stretch of whitewater that dropped rapidly through a series of massive boulders. As I spilled out I felt the tie-rope for the bail-bucket wrap around my ankle and experienced a long moment of panic, knowing that if I went through the rapid tied to the canoe, I was toast."––from The Beast with Two Brains A TOUR OF ENGLAND with an art smuggler…a Bhutan trek with a new age guru…a river trip requiring twenty-two cases of beer…witnessing the creation of the world’s biggest hamburger… These are some of the adventures of which author Rick Sterry writes in At Large––entertaining, humorous, and provocative tales of his off-the-beaten-path adventures. The whimiscal tales of this travel memoir take us to the Pacific Northwest, the Mid-West, the U.K., and Asia with chapters that include "The Mother of All Fiddle Contests," "The Turner Print," "At the Nudie Hot Springs," "The Beast with Two Brains," "The World's Biggest Hamburger," "Rafting with the Honeymooners," and "The Magic Walking Stick."
