Volume II of Acer rubrum to Zyzyphus jujuba: Stories & Adventures completes an unintended trilogy of chronicles written by a gadfly forester. The author still possesses an urge to travel and share some of the more interesting stories and events of his 50 years On the road....again!!! during a too short career as a traveling forester. The self proclaimed Footloose Forester is an avid observer of people, places, and events, particularly in the natural world of plants and animals. He purposely chose to record his stories and adventures as undated chronicles.
