Abstract
Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua, is no more a logging town than Ames, Iowa. It is a sanctuary for bootleggers, but at the same time, if it were not for the Bragmans Bluff Lumber Co. it wouldn’t be on the map. (If it’s there now it’s news to me.) It was here that I arrived on Aug. 22, 1927, after being delayed several months because of the various Nicaraguan insurrections, to assume the many and varied duties of a forester out for “practical experience.”
