    Paul R. Wonning

    Gardening, history and travel seem an odd soup in which to stew one's life, but Paul has done just that. A gardener since 1975, he has spent his spare time reading history and traveling with his wife. He gardens, plans his travels and writes his books out in the sticks near a small town in southeast Indiana. He enjoys sharing the things he has learned about gardening, history and travel with his readers. The many books Paul has written reflect that joy of sharing. He also writes fiction in his spare time. Read and enjoy his books, if you will. Or dare.Now, back to writing, if he can get the cat off the keyboard.Join Paul on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/Mossy-Feet-Books-474924602565571/Twitter https://twitter.com/MossyFeetBookspaulwonning@gmail.com
