Almost FlyingAlmost Flying takes a hilarious look at the zany sport of raising and racing pigeons from the slightly demented mind of Dick Williamson. The book covers Dickas life-long relationship with the birds, using the stories as a humorous metaphor to explain what he thinks is wrong with the world. He just may have a point. |
