Marshman! - Hardcover

Manson Lee Clark of the rural Chambers County, Texas community of Cove

compiled such a record, spanning more than sixty years of his outdoor experiences

and observations with the wildlife of southeast Texas. In all truthfulness, it must be

stated that Clark did not have the future work of historians in mind when he began

keeping records so many years ago. He simply recorded facts, figures and dates for

his own future reference, rather than having to face the prospect of later relying upon

his memory to recall such matters. The result became the compilation of probably

one of the most detailed accounts of outdoor life in south-east Texas during the better

part of the twentieth century. It consists of all the ingredients of man's endeavors:

achievements, failures, trials and errors. It records from an individual perspective

both the good and difficult times.
