Notă biografică

Born into a farm family in the late 1940s, J.L. Fredrick lived his youth in rural Western Wisconsin, a modest but comfortable life not far from the Mississippi River. His father was a farmer, and his mother, an elementary school teacher. He attended a one-room country school for his first seven years of education. Wisconsin has been home all his life, with exception of a few years in Minnesota and Florida. After college in La Crosse, Wisconsin and a stint with Uncle Sam during the Viet Nam era, the next few years were unsettled as he explored and experimented with life's options. He entered into the transportation industry in 1975. Since 2001 he has fourteen published novels to his credit, and two history volumes, Rivers, Roads, & Rails, and Ghostville. He was a featured author during Grand Excursion 2004. J.L. Fredrick is currently rediscovering the USA in an RV.
