I’ve collected all of his books. Funniest outdoor stuff you’ll read. “Journal of an Expedition” and “Sneed” automatically come to mind. I miss his writing.

A two quart hip flask (Or rather a two quart carry over your shoulder flask) did indeed exist. Do not try to put it in your pocket.

My personal favorites were “They Shoot Canoes, Don’t They?” (Both the book and the story), “Skunk Dog”, and “The Green Box”.
I remember reading some McManus stories out loud to my dad one day when he was home sick with a cold. I’ve never heard my Dad laugh so hard since then.
Pat McManus passed away in 2018.
