    «i»The Tall Tales of Carl Munro:
    The Incredible Bard of Round Pond, Maine
    by Robert Erickson
    A Book Review by Ria Biley

    In this tribute to the memory of his friend and neighbor, author Erickson recounts the storytelling talents of Carl Munro, a colorful character of a man whose ancestors first settled in Round Pond back in the mid-1800's. Munro's parents moved there permanently in 1943. It was to the family homestead that Munro returned after serving as a PT boat captain in World War II.

    The permanent injuries he sustained as a result of his military service didn't seem to slow Munro down much, as he gardened vast acreage, drove lumber trucks, and captained tour boats well into his later years. Along the way, he acquired near-legendary status for his tales of wartime (and other) adventures.

    Munro was well known by locals as a fellow who had a story to tell on just about everything, which he delivered with panache--and a straight face. Most of the tales in this book are presented with care to keep the flavor of Munro's delivery as close to accurate as possible, and those who knew him will recognize his voice in its pages.

    The "tall tales" foreshadowed in the title signify that all of Munro's stories included himself and his own adventures, but after decades of telling and retelling to enthusiastic audiences, seem to have accumulated a good deal of embellishment. The reader will be the judge as to just how much.

    From the story "Infernal Harvest" comes this pretty-hard-to-swallow, but nonetheless amusing, yarn of Munro's difficulty in harvesting his parsnip crop one year, due to the unyielding frost. He couldn't wait, "so I went and got some dynamite and blew those parsnips all to hell. There were so many it filled up the harbor." One can easily envision the sky full of exploding parsnips, and wonder how the fishermen in the harbor reacted to the unusual "rain" that day.

    Another of Munro's really tall tales was of having rented a motor scooter while on leave in Rome. As he approached the Vatican, he said, "I revved that damn scooter up and went right up the stairs to the top. That's when I met the Pope. I shook his hand and went right back down the stairs." Hmmm...

    Carl Munro passed away in 2008 at the age of 92, but his stories will live on in the memories of those who knew him and were privileged to hear him tell them in his unique voice. If you missed hearing them first-hand, this book is your next best chance. It's an easy read ... no extra charge for the chuckles.
