Autorenporträt
Since retiring from university teaching, Marsha Ann Matson has avidly pursued her favorite hobby, going to garage sales every weekend, rain or shine. She has been an explorer on the garage sale trail for 17 years, coinciding with meeting Dennis Ross. Together, they have had many practical, humorous, and unusual adventures, which they share in this book. Along the way, they have become experts at living well on little money, in part because of garage sales. Marsha lives in Miami, Florida, where the warm weather permits year-round exploration. Dennis M. Ross has explored half the world as a tourist and member of the U.S. Armed Forces. In every country he has visited, he sought and found flea markets, bazaars, and casbahs. He now imparts to the reader 30 years of experience, so that buyers and sellers can take advantage of his knowledge to acquire treasures and to make money. Dennis is retired from the military and as a university English professor. He lives in Southeast Florida.
