travel writing

Have you ever seen the movie ‘Queen of Outer Space’ starring Zsa Zsa Gabor? A camp classic no doubt. Somehow I missed it. Luckily, I did not miss the recent publishing of ‘Night Diver’ by Neptune Beach legend Bucky McMahon. Mr. McMahon lives near our state capital now, but once resided in our little corner of the world, Fletcher graduate 1973. Over the last two decades he’s written travel/adventure pieces for Outside magazine, Esquire, and several other top notch mags. This collection contains essays that (as described by novelist Janet Burroway) “take you deep underwater, slogging through the swamp, brachiating through the jungle, luffing past the lava flow, yawning in the classroom, yo-yoing on the open sea; and now and again just for good measure surfing the psychic cosmos.” I highly recommend this fine book.

McMahon sightings are more likely than wave sightings until September.
