Civish Jr. is a professional journalist living in Ogden, Utah. He began writing as an author/photographer for trade journals and has over a thousand articles published in over a hundred trade journals. He has three books published: The Sunnyside War, about the first nationwide coal strike (600,000 miners went on strike) and the killings that occurred during it; Losing Weight for Life (Eating What You Like on the RMR Diet). He used to weigh over 300 lbs and now weighs 175; and his autobiography Out of the Gulch onto the Mountain Top, which has nothing but five-star ratings on Amazon and reads like a novel as it traces him through life.
His broad range of interests besides his love of history and Indian culture, which resulted in this book, include stand-in and bit parts in a number of movies and TV-series, parachute jumping and abalone diving in the Pacific.voir moins
