The Leatherman: A Most Unusual Man, Indeed - Episode 84

There are two things about the Leatherman that set him apart from everyone else on the planet.  First, there was what he wore.  His wardrobe was a single piece of clothing made entirely of scraps of leather (hence, the name he was known by) fastened together with bent nails.

And second, there was his strict attention to time and place.  Thus, for thirty-five years, his annual circuitous trek never varied.  So dependable was the date of his arrival in the various villages that he visited, that it was said a person could set their clocks and calendars by his arrivals and departures.

Stories from History’s Dust Bin is a 3-volume set of historical short stories.  These are the nuggets of gold that had fallen by the wayside… the little known and unusual.  Many of these gems were destined to be forever lost until they were collected, dusted off and brought back to life by author Wayne Winterton.

Each podcast episode features one of over 450 short stories from either Winterton’s Award-Winning Stories from Dust Bin series* or the companion volume, From Ace to Zamboni: 101 More Dust Bin Stories, as narrated by either the author or his son, William, or daughter, Jana.
