People have loved to go camping in the great outdoors ever since our ancestors escaped the great outdoors to discover the joys of indoor living. Here, twelve veterans of the camping experience, both seasoned and new authors, present tales born in the woods, home grown around the campfire in the oldest of storytelling tradition. Join in as they tell their tales, some serious and some silly. Stories borne of time spent with an audacious Pug mascot, good food, decent wine, and some spooky howls deep in the woods. You will find aliens: They want more than our women-they want that perfect vacation. Experience an attempt to reclaim a devastated Earth by camping out and exploring. Is it really a Sasquatch snitching the French toast? All of this and more are tales told around an Alien campfire.
