FARMINGTON – DDG Booksellers is honored to host a book signing and celebration for local author Bob Kimber’s new book Lost But Found: An Upcountry Life on Wednesday, October 11 at 6 p.m. at DDG. Over the years, Kimber has generously shared his life insights through his writings; this evening will be a gathering honoring not only his new work, but his many contributions to our community.
As many know, Bob Kimber has led a largely rural life as a farmer, writer, and woodsman in Temple, Maine. The essays gathered in this wide-ranging collection, Lost But Found: An Upcountry Life, reflect a lifetime of adventures and misadventures. Kimber writes of canoeing and fishing, stubborn sheep and old tractors, and the joys of roaming the woods with his dog. Seasoned with a dash of wit and self-irony, this paean to the upcountry life is as fresh and bracing as it is affectionate.
Bob Kimber’s work has appeared in Audubon, Country Journal, Down East, Field & Stream, Harrowsmith, Horticulture, Yankee, Northern Woodlands, and the Missouri Review. He is the author of the books, Upcountry, A Canoeist’s Sketchbook, Made for the Country, and Living Wild and Domestic.
Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the event and Bob Kimber will be signing.
