ⓘ About Robert F. Jones

Robert F. Jones was “Men’s Journal” contributing editor, writer for “Field & Stream” and “Sports Illustrated” and bestselling novelist. His works include “Bloodroot” and “Bloodsport” in addition to multiple works of nonfiction and fiction. Robert made his name writing novels with surrealistic and fantastic elements, which made many of his works to be labeled slipstream. Given how influential his works have been, they have been preserved for posterity at the University of Virginia’s Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library. In his later years, he lived in Vermont and would later die in 2002 at the Southwestern Vermont Medical Center. He left behind two adult children and a wife of 46 years. Robert F.
