Skyboat Media is proud to join Paul Stokes in bringing HI-HO SILVER, ANYWAY to audiobook form.
As the industrious owner and operator of audiobookreviewer.com, Paul Stokes hoped he could give his grandfather’s books a larger audience by putting them on audio. With Skyboat Media and his backers at IndieGoGo, he’s done just that.
Originally published in 1973, HI-HO SILVER, ANYWAY is a collection of articles and columns that illustrate what Bill Stokes does best: write with good humor and feeling. For ten years Bill Stokes was a roving reporter and columnist for the Milwaukee Journal. He has written reams of material about his vivid impressions of people, animals, events, personal activities, and “things in general.”
Through his travels, Bill has met with the unusual and unique to the humorous, trivial, and tragic. This select group from his collection of stories and columns indicates the broad scope of his journalistic efforts, brilliant talents, and professional ability.
It’s clear that Bill takes great joy in the state of Wisconsin and its people. With his love of the outdoors and his terrific storytelling ability, it’s easy to see why his home state is so fond of him.
About the author: Bill Stokes has been dubbed Wisconsin’s favorite journalist and most famous outdoor writer.
