Nicaraguan Odyssey (Book Review)

“Nicaraguan Odyssey: The Adventures of an American Duster Pilot in 1953 Nicaragua”, 0595357350, c2004, 224 pages, by Richard Fred Trimble. O.K., what follows is not a review. Haven’t come across a copy in the last few years, nor met anyone who has ever heard of the book. Maybe someone here has read it, and will comment on Trimble's "Odyssey". Reportedly, ex-Army Air Corps man Trimble, after securing his pilots and mechanics licenses, doing some instruction and repair work, and performing some “high-end agricultural aviation work” (which I presume is really a euphemism for being a duster pilot?), somehow and for some reason I haven't come across, in 1953 heads off for Nicaragua with two of his pilot friends, each in their own plane. Some creative scheduling and refueling, bizarre weather, political unrest, mechanical problems, a lack of parts, a fiesta to ends all fiestas, an attempt to kill the President before their eyes, a near drowning, bored plantation owners bent on entertaining the gringo aviators, some not-so-boring Nicaraguan women, and a riot in Leon - are all said to make it the trip of a lifetime. This is a paraphrased combination of three very tiny blurbs I found on the internet, regarding Trimble‘s book. To be honest, I am not sure any of the blurbs I found were written by people who actually read the book. Truth be told, books often do not live up to their billing, but if even half of this is true, it might be a decent read. That is all I know…
