Don’t Fence Me In

For 14 years, Bill Redekop crisscrossed rural Manitoba writing offbeat and little known stories about people and places for the Winnipeg Free Press. Now he’s back with a new batch of never-beforepublished stories.

From quicksand to the discovery of a new glacial lake, from two friends who have gone for lunch every week for 35 years to the police dog academy in Brandon, from civilian jail guard duty to yarns about Jesse James in Manitoba, from wolf hunters to river banks on fire, from the longest running polka radio show to a house made out of a single boulder, Redekop knits a tapestry of rural life.

Take a spin through rural Manitoba with Bill!
