Redneck Riviera is the true story of Covington's bizarre encounters with a lawless band of gun-toting swamp-dwellers in Central Florida who've illegally claimed the two-and-a-half acres of land he inherited from his father.

"Fantastic non-fiction read. Alas, the great Punkin' Brown died of a snake bite a few years back. Covington's other books don't quite measure up to this one. "

    " I didn't think it was particularly well written. I will never understand the purpose of snake handling but that doesn't keep me from being fascinated by it. "
