Dam Foolishness

The stories in Dam Foolishness are based on the author's life experiences that began in the small village of Carthage, New York, tucked away in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains. Carthage lays no claim to uniqueness or any remarkable attributes that would distinguish it from thousands of such hamlets all across America. The author's reminiscences, which led him to pen the short stories contained in Dam Foolishness, were prompted by the memories nearly all of us have as we grow older and ponder our past lives. Anyone who has lived in small town America will likely recognise, or recall, many of the characters written about in this book. As they peruse these well-written tales, readers will also be prompted to take their own journeys into the past and remember the quaintness their own hometowns and the people that populated them.
