Lunch at Noonmark: A Collection of Short Stories and Poems

This collection of stories - each story being framed by a poem - is a series of Adirondack adventures of one Topher Jones - a young man who learns much about life through his experiences in the Adirondacks. From his childhood summers at his grandparents' camp in Indian Lake, to his college years on hikes to the Siamese Ponds in the role of camp counselor, to ice climbing Gothics' North Face as a young adult, these and many more tales accentuate both Jones' life lessons and his understanding of the natural wonders of the Park. The book has the feel and texture of Hemingway's IN OUR TIME - only with an Adirondack location.
