E-book Category: Nonfiction E-book Title: Throwing Sticks and Skipping Stones Author: Gloria MacKay Book Description: Essays Gloria MacKay has thrown many sticks in her life, and skipped lots of stones-or at least tried. It is hard not to, loving as she does the mist enfolded, water wrapped Pacific Northwest
As a writer and broadcaster of commentaries and articles, she broadens her base and throws as far as she can at whatever pops in her head: she skips from magic to politics; from recipes to baseball; from men, women, and children to time marching on.
Throwing Sticks and Skipping Stones is a collection of her most entertaining, thought-provoking work. Unlike the stones she tries to skip at water's edge, these essays are as on the mark as a dart in a bull's eye.
As you read Throwing Sticks and Skipping Stones feel free to laugh; this is how a girl throws, and Gloria MacKay wouldn't have it any other way.
