Under the Stars: The Life and Times of Tom Tepper

Rating:
Summary: spending a fantastic life
Review: And what have you done with your life lately? Read what Tom Tepper did, and wonder how you've wasted your time, not homesteading in Oregon or breaking wild horses or teaching the infant Army Air Corps how to fly or analyzing trees for violin wood. Probably you even sleep most nights under a roof. However, easier to read about Tepper than do it yourself.

Summary: Just like being there!
Review: Tom Tepper's memories of life in Oregon in the first half of the 20th century as recorded by Nancy Bringhurst are vivid and engaging! Historians as well as professionals in any of Tom's dozen plus life vocations (whistle punk, cowboy, silversmith, flight instructor and commercial fisherman to name a few!) will feel that they were by his side as they dote over each shared detail . Bringhurst is a meticulous scribe recording Tom's tale as if she too was along on his "voyage of discovery".
