    There were no cell phones and no computers. Entertainment was found in other forms and activities and Travis McGee lived and roamed freely on the edges of that era and made us all wish we had more adventure in our lives. I bought this volume because the Travis McGee novels qualify to me as worth keeping around and re-reading on a rainy day, a snowy day, a home sick in bed with the flu day, or just any day when you need to escape to another place and another time and be entertained by one of the best loved characters, even if from another era and one that few under 30 have heard of. I did not have the pleasure to buy the leather bound Grand Masters copy of this book. My copy is one of the book store copies. Well worth getting and reading. But all of John D. McDonalds books are. /BEST VALUE ON THIS GIFT QUALITY BOOK /FAST SHIPPING/OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE/
