It was 1992 and everybody was against me so I got up really early and placed a call to the U.S. embassy in Bamako, the capital of Mali.... I told Scott ( was going to Timbuktu. He asked me if he could have my TV set if I didn't come back. I said yes. Then he asked me why I was going. Because, I replied, there's a wild goose honking in my ear...and the bastard won't shut up! So begins the latest gonzo journey by filmmaker Trent Harris (Rubin and Ed, Plan l0 from Outer Space), this one by plane, boat, camel, and pen. Following the wild goose, Harris travels to Timbuktu, choosing his destination in part because it's just so damned hard to get to. Chronicling the details of his trip -- along with assorted other thoughts, historical tidbits, memories, and unrelated tangents -- Harris leads us on a funny and ultimately poignant trip.

For over four decades Mike has been shooting and chasing the elusive Wild Goose; mainly the Pink-footed Goose. He certainly knows the meaning of the saying, 'A Wild Goose Chase and Goose Fever' as he has experienced it many times throughout his lifetime. Now in his mid-sixties he has probably seen and been involved in areas of shooting that will never be witnessed or ever re-lived again. But local reports show that now even after many, many years geese are still on a 20%% yearly increase. It must be the most sought after bird in the UK during the winter months. There are a number of short stories in this book about his 'adventures' as he calls them and the fun he shared with many others. Mike talks about what it's like to go Wildfowling and inland Goose Shooting. He tells of sitting for hours just waiting to see those magnificent birds as they leave the safety of the estuaries or lochs to fly inland to their feeding grounds.

"Molly Ivins, Texas columnist and wry observer of American culture, called 1968 'the year everything happened.' 1968 finds America engulfed in political and racial turmoil, assassinations, and a war seemingly without end. The year finds Tom Windham trying to deal with a few of life's basics - love, death, God, and sex. A sophomore at a conservative university in Dallas and the veteran of an upbringing in a small East Texas town, Tom sits uncomfortably on the cusp of adulthood. He is joined there by his roommate Brandeis. Along with the young women in their lives, their college friends, and their families, they experience the joys, struggles and tragedies of the year on a human scale. While the events of the operatic year keep intervening, changes in American attitudes toward sex, race, women, war and religion are also reflected in Wild Goose Moon"--Publisher description.
