Book Overview

Although Uncle Royal, native to the Matagamon region of Maine and a character, and his city-born nephew, Thomas Wellington III, are engaging and true-to-form, they are fictional. The rest of the folks who populate this book are or were real people. They lived, worked, and helped to mold the history and heritage of this wilderness region in northern Maine.These people are tough and hardy, independent and reliable, their lives woven into the land they worked and loved. Uncle Royal characterizes those who have lived and died in this region, their attitudes and lifestyles. Young Tom represents those who come into this land seeking an enjoyable experience without knowing its history or character.

About Randall Probert

Randall Probert lived and was raised in Strong, a small town in the western mountains of Maine. Six months after graduating from high school, he left the small town behind for Baltimore, Maryland, and a Marine engineering school, situated downtown near what was then called "The Block". Because of bad weather, the flight from Portland to New York was canceled and this made him late for the connecting flight to Baltimore. A young kid, alone, from the backwoods of Maine, finally found his way to Washington, D.C., and boarded a bus from there to Baltimore. After leaving the Merchant Marines, he went to an aviation school in Lexington, Massachusetts. During his interview for Maine Game Warden, he was asked, "You have gone from the high seas to the air. . .are you sure you want to be a game warden?" Mr. Probert retired from Warden Service in 1997 and started writing historical novels about the history in the areas where he patrolled as a game warden, with his own experiences as a game warden as those of the wardens in his books. Mr. Probert has since expanded his purview and has written two science fiction books, Paradigm and Paradigm II, and has written two mystical adventures, An Esoteric Journey, and Ekani's Journey.
