The Great Nauga Hunt has a curious history. I worked for the Long Beach, California, Fire Department. One day in a fire station, I forget which one it was, I overheard two firemen talking. One fireman was telling the other one about a joke he had played on another fireman. The joke, the fireman said, was telling this other fireman that naugahyde was the hide of an animal. When I heard this, I laughed to myself. Who would believe that naugahyde was the skin of a real animal? The fireman telling the story was convinced that the fireman he was playing the joke on, did not know that naugahyde was a manmade plastic covering. I didn't know the fireman who was supposed to believe that naugahyde was the skin of a real animal very well, but I thought he was pulling the leg of the fireman who was trying to play the naugahyde joke on him. Anyway, I don't know who was kidding who, but the utter absurdity of anyone believing that naugahyde was the skin of a real animal seemed so completely impossible that I shook my head in disbelief. I laughed to myself whenever I thought of this incident. I knew instantly that here was a story, a story I wanted to tell, but how would a writer write such a story? How could you invent a character that would be so dumb as to not know that naugahyde was a plastic covering and not the hide of a real animal? I didn't know. As time went by, my mind (subconscious?) began to spit out scenes of a young man who was a hunter, such as the ones we used to see in the Tarzan movies and the Jungle Jim stories. An innocent, gullible young man, but a great hunter, who belonged to one of those hunting clubs we used to see in movies about Africa, of men sitting around in a room with the mounted heads of animals hanging on all of the room's walls, usually Englishmen or Europeans. Well, I wasn't going to write about a bunch of English stuffed shirts, I was going to write an American story about Americans, even if they were stuffed shirts. I've had enough of insulting, ill mannered Englishmen and Europeans bashing America and Americans. The trouble was, I had to use some Europeans anyway, because I made the hunting club an international club. So you see, from this unusual beginning, I (my subconscious) made up the story, The Great Nauga Hunt. The Great Nauga Hunt is one of the greatest, if not the greatest hunt in all of the history of the universe. If you like great hunting stories you will like The Great Nauga Hunt. I have added the history of how and when I wrote The Great Nauga Hunt to the end of the story so the reader can find out where an author gets some of his stories.
