In his second memoir, Tales from North Bay & Beyond: More Bear Spring Camps Stories, author Joseph M. Kockelmans is back with a second installment of amusing stories from his decades of vacationing at a fishing camp in central Maine. In book two, Mr. Kockelmans invites his readers to enjoy twenty-one new short stories about fishing, nature, wildlife, and socializing with friends and family, ranging from when he was a child to just last year. This book is arranged in a slightly different format than the first. Sixteen stories are put together in four categories, called basketfuls, while five slightly longer stories act as anchors between them. In this book, Mr. Kockelmans describes events like the time where he dared his best friend to jump out of a moving boat, he joined friends to look for loons and another time for eagles, when he caught an odd-looking fish, and the time his Aunt Marilyn invited him to her cabin for an overnight stay. For him the most touching story, however, is his personal tribute to campers who are no longer with us.
