Richard Cook compiled many of the sayings in Don't Quote Me But . . . over his thirty-five-year career. The book is a tribute to his father, who always had time for a little chuckle, even if it was at his own expense.
Richard loves a good pun and hopes this book will keep people smiling. He retired five years ago from a lifetime as a farmer, and he lives with his wife in Stratford, Ontario.
All profits will go to not-for-profit organizations as a tribute to his dad.
