Country Boy

About the Book

Country Boy, Adventures from an Untroubled Childhood, is a true story about the wonders of childhood and the love and companionship provided by a large, closely-knit family. Set in the iron mining area of rural Upper Michigan in the 1950’s and 1960’s, it is the story of a young boy’s adventures, misadventures and the role his family played in shaping his childhood and his entire life. From a boy’s first kiss, to the shame of running afoul of the law at age eight, to the inventiveness of children trying to entertain themselves, it is a story that the average reader can both relate to, and delight in. Prusi´s second book, A Hunter´s Journey - The Education of an Outdoorsman, was released in December of 2002 and his third, A Hunter´s Year, in June 2003. Autographed copies of all Dan´s books are available through the author. Visit his website, www.talesfromcv.com or contact Dan at TalesFromCV@aol.com or PO Box 482, Floodwood, MN 55736

The father of three grown children, he now resides in Cedar Valley Township near Floodwood, Minnesota with Sherilee, his wife of twenty-eight years. An avid outdoorsman and amateur naturalist, he lives on a seventy-seven acre property that he manages for wildlife. Although he has aged somewhat since the photo was taken, he is still very much a Country Boy. This is his first published work.
