Hallelujah 2 Groundhogs & 16 Valentines
by Gino Sky
"Gino Sky, an Idaho original. Mountain climber, poet, author, storyteller, tracer of lost birds, keeper of the truth, horseman, scribe, whopping great liar, kind lover, writer, high liver, truck person, olde truck hero, keen observer. Writes up a storm. Anything he writes, I want to read it. If he leaves me a note on my wiper blades, I save it. I step around or over his tire tracks."
— Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Grammy Award Winner

Unabashedly honest and exuberantly playful, Sky’s book is a holiday in itself. Letterpress printed on archival-quality papers and sewn by hand in a limited edition of 400 copies.
