I was hoping it was history of the area, but his books are novels. The author also does yard mowing in the Tionesta area, plus is involved in other local events. I have seen his photo in the Forest Press.

Here's a link to the History of Nebraska, Forest county . Interesting reading and pictures.

Also a New Official Map of Forest County showing landowners (as of 1895).

And finally, A history of Forest County
