Skeeter Daddle Diaries by Jack Archibald

Skeeter Daddle is a latter day Huck Finn tromping Camano's backwash in search of an America long thought lost, a banjo on his knee and a grudge against Mark Twain for marooning him in a childhood no longer sanctuary. The author writes the way he plays the banjo: headlong, brakes out, bystanders beware. If you read closely enough, you will find him grinning from every page, hiding in the old growth nettle stands of the fabled South End.

About the Author:

Jack Archibald is a modern homesteader who built his home and his life on Camano Island, Washington's South End, a place half myth and half hardship. He has been a moonshiner, a nettle farmer, a banjo whacker, an itinerant artist and a curmudgeon of local repute.
