Forster's 'Collected Ramblings (Book):
Gipp's book has been a popular seller since hitting the bookshelves in

most popular 'ramblings' which are regularly featured on his radio program
in Canadian cities. The book includes a forward by noted
Canadian broadcaster, Roy Bonisteel and sketches are by Canadian artist
Glenn Matthews. Gipp Forster's 'Collected Ramblings' is the perfect
companion to Gipp Forster's Christmas cassette, and will delight families
all year round. Gipp Forster is well known as a radio broadcaster, author and poet throughout Canada & the United States. His 'Ramblings' radio vignettes have been broadcast across North America, and 'It Feels Like Christmas', a series of minute long stories about the Christmas spirit, charm listeners in more that 75 cities each year.

In
this Collection, Gipp Forster warmly shares his musings on the past, as a
boy growing up in the 1940's and 1950's in Ottawa, and the present, as a
husband, father, grandfather and conscientious citizen of his beloved
Victoria. With equal measures of humour and humility, Forster paints
a vivid portrait of an almost idyllic childhood, and his comfortable,
though sometimes confusing, coming-of-age experiences as a senior in
today's high-tech world.
Gipp Forster is a West Coast natural resource that has finally been harvested in the form of this book, Reflections, Rejections and other Breakfast Foods. It is a collection of Gipp's best, with his trade mark seasoning of humour and nostalgia - as well as some hilarious new work that is seeing the light of day with this publication. If you're of a certain age (say 50 and up) this guy will press your buttons. To paraphrase Knute Rockne (another oldtimer) "Buy one for the Gipper". Click the photo to ORDER. |
