Having done a stint as a bulldogger on the rodeo circuit, he retired to roam the country in his big pearl-colored Caddy with peach velour interior. He now spends his days scouting - exploring back roads for antiques and collectibles, buying and selling what strikes his fancy, 'too curious, too restless, too much in love with the treasure hunt to specialize." - From a 1982 review. LITERATURE BOX 5/Ron stack Library . Language: eng. Hardcover. Very Good/Dust Jacket Included.
