Members Bill Benson Posted June 10, 2008 Members Posted June 10, 2008 I was thinking the other day that I after reading George L. Herter's many books, visiting his now closed store in Mitchell SD and using his fly tying gear, I have never actually ever seen a photograph or likeness of him. Well it turns out that he didn't like his readers or customers discovering that he was somewhat less of the Teddy Roosevelt/Paul Bunyan/Jim Bridger archetype that one would imagine him as from reading his books. More to the fact he has been described as being "A slightly-built balding man who wore rather thick glasses." Oh I neglected to mention he also wrote a book... no kidding called : "How to live with a bitch." Wow, like to see him try that today. Maybe Bill Clinton would like a copy .
